World mission conference to spotlight
companion relationships with "Everyone, Everywhere"
[Episcopal News Service] Episcopalians active in global mission work will gather June 5-8, 2008, at the Maritime Institute in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, for the church-wide world mission conference, "Everyone, Everywhere."
The conference is for individuals, parishes, dioceses, and mission groups committed to building and maintaining companion relationships with people around the world.
Conference attendees will have the opportunity to celebrate existing relationships and nurture new ones, meet with others who have common interests and experiences in specific regions or mission topics, share personal mission stories, and learn how to engage in more effective world mission.
"It is an important and opportune time for the Episcopal Church to focus on the global mission of the Church," says the Rev. Jim Lemler, director of mission for the Episcopal Church.
"There are many relationships and partnerships for global mission. There is a strong vision for service in the global context. We build on a rich heritage and experience of mission throughout the world. Now is the time to envision that mission in new ways recognizing the potential that exists for our future."
