Purpose
The Anglican Mission exists to glorify God and to serve, grow and multiply local churches that love Jesus Christ. We are focused on reaching the world He died to save by building an alliance committed to gathering, planting and serving dynamic churches in the Anglican tradition.

Mission
Fulfilling Christ's Great Commandments and Great Commission

Call
Our goal reaching the 130 million un-churched in the U.S. and some 20 million in Canada with the transforming reality of Jesus Christ.

Oversight
Anglican Mission is missionary outreach of the Province of the Episcopal Church of Rwanda under the oversight of the Anglican Archbishop of Rwanda. Through its relationship with the Province of Rwanda, the Anglican Mission is connected to the global Anglican Communion.

Beliefs and Worship
The Anglican Mission uses imagery of "three streams" to express the heart of its belief and worship: The Scripture...the Spirit...the Sacred. In the course of Church history, three major "branches" have developed which incorporate a particular emphasis of belief, teaching, and worship. The Anglican Mission believes that each of these traditions represents an essential element of Christian faith, worship, life and ministry. We refer to these elements using a descriptive short-hand: the Scripture, the Spirit and the Sacred, envisioning them as three streams flowing from one river--Jesus Christ and His Gospel imperatives. We believe the three streams together provide a balanced blend of the Christian faith as taught in the one holy catholic and apostolic Church. The Scripture, the Spirit and the Sacred are exemplified in our discipleship, worship, congregational life and outreach.

Worship is Ancient...Future
Our approach to worship is rooted in historic traditions of the earliest Christian Church but often is colored with contemporary and fresh expressions that engage the senses, connecting with people's hearts and minds. This unique blend of the ancient and future provides a means of capturing the imagination of a society immersed in images of the media and Internet. Our churches offer a wide variety and diversity in worship expressions while upholding the Biblical and historic essentials of Christian faith.

In 2007, the Anglican Mission expanded its structure at the request of Archbishop Kolini by creating the Anglican Mission in the Americas. This umbrella organization includes the Anglican Mission in America (AMiA), the Anglican Coalition of Canada (ACiC) and the Anglican Coalition in America (ACiA). This structure embraces two countries (the US and Canada) as well as two positions on the ordination of women. Both the ACiC and the ACiA ordain women to the priesthood, as does the Province of Rwanda, while the AMiA maintains its policy of ordaining women only to the diaconate. The Anglican Mission in the Americas provides a way to maintain the integrity, and honor the consciences, of those with differing positions and policies on women's ordination.
