What is the Mission of the Church?

“The mission of the Church is to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ. The Church pursues its mission as it prays and worships, proclaims the Gospel, and promotes justice, peace, and love. The Church carries out its mission through the ministry of all its members.” -The Book of Common Prayer, 1979

As we seek to be a healing and reconciling force in the world, we ask how we can break down the barriers that prevent people from seeing that they are united by God’s love?
