Mission Plan

DARING TO LIVE GOD’S PROMISES

Since the official launch of the Mission Plan in May 2008, we have witnessed the progress of the Plan in leaps and bounds. More and more Anglicans in our Diocese are taking up the challenge and reaching out to their community, be it in proclaiming, worshipping or serving. And there is lots of behind-the-scenes activity too, in inspirational leadership and life giving systems and structures.
There are so many ways in which each and every one of us can contribute.  Parish clergy can encourage their flock to participate in the various learning opportunities being provided through the Mission Plan. Spirited worshipping communities can steadily carry out various projects.
We hope that this specially allocated space on the Diocesan Website provides both inspiration and resources for those daring to live god’s promises.

 

MISSION PLAN UPDATE

In an effort to circulate more "Good News Stories" and ensure that we keep the excitement in the diocese surrounding the Mission Plan, the idea of a Mission Plan Update came about. This Update is circulated through email and goes out to all clergy with email addresses, and also to lay people who have opted in to receive it.

The Updates go out on a fortnightly basis and contain useful resources for parishes, fun Mission Plan Competitions, training dates and a wealth of information. We encourage you to forward it on to other individuals who may be interested, and reproduce the material in your weekly church bulletins to spread the good news even further.

So far, the Mission Plan Monthly Updates have been a hit and has received much positive feedback. If you have a good news story to share or an upcoming mission plan project or event, please send an email to ttan@perth.anglican.org with all the relevant details so that we can include it in the update.

PRAYER

Please pray...

  • Pray for Applecross parish, close to completing their own Mission Action Plan aligned with "Daring to Live God's Promises". Ask God to give them many early signs of hope and growth after the thoughtful months of planning.
  • Pray for safe fun for students finishing TEE exams and letting their hair down. Ask God to guide their choices for study and work for the coming year.
  • Give thanks for student leaders chosen for year 12 in Anglican schools around the diocese for 2010.
  • Ask God to bless the student leaders with gifts of listening and service for their school communities, and to encourage them through a reflection day with the Archbishop at Wollaston College this coming Friday.
  • Pray for people newly baptised and/or confirmed in recent weeks. Ask God to give them strong growth in prayer and study of the scripture, and to use their passion for faith and ministry to inspire their whole communities.
  • Ask God to bless the harvest in regional areas, and to provide crop prices that will continue to help farmers recover from past years of drought and debt.
  • Give thanks for the outdoor ecumenical service in association with next weekend's Wildflower Festival at Wongan Hills. Ask God to touch the hearts of all who attend with the glory of creation and the hope of redemption in Jesus Christ.
  • Pray for many enquirers to approach parishes which are participating in Jesus-All About Life. Ask God to touch hearts and change minds.
