Marked for Mission: Tell, Teach, Tend, Transform, Treasure – Stewardship 2016

As Christians we are marked for mission by virtue of our baptism, and this has implications for our stewardship–the commitment of our finances, time, and talents to the Church. This series examines the Anglican/Episcopal Five Marks of Mission as part of our 2016 Stewardship Campaign. The Five Marks of Mission may be summed up in this way: Tell, Teach, Tend, Transform, and Treasure. 

The Five Marks of Mission are:

• To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
• To teach, baptise and nurture new believers
• To respond to human need by loving service
• To transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation
• To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, and sustain and renew the life of the earth
