He says to them, "As you go, proclaim the good news, `The kingdom of heaven has come near.' Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons."
This is our mission, too. Jesus sends us out to proclaim the good news and bring healing and new life. But just how do we do it in our particular context? What does it mean for us to proclaim the good news of Jesus and bring healing and new life here in Silverdale?
In the next year or more, I'll be especially looking to see what our particular mission at St. Antony is, and how we go about it. Here are some questions I'll be asking:
- Who are we as a congregation?
- What is God calling us to do and be?
- What makes us unique?
- Who is our neighbor?
- How do we serve our community?
- How does our Anglican/Episcopal heritage shape us and form us?
I'm certain that we have a unique mission to do here at St. Antony. I look forward to learning what it is that God is calling us to be and do.
