Mission Week Service: Speaker Tim Swan, Anglican Aid.
In the year AD 48, Paul went to Jerusalem to confer with leaders in the church about the plan for mission. It was agreed that just as Peter’s mission was to the Jewish nation, Paul’s mission was to be to the Gentiles. It was added that Paul should remember the poor, “which he was glad to do”!
There are many examples from the Old Testament prophets, at the start of Jesus’ ministry, with Zacchaeus, and in Jesus explanation of the judgment of the nations, and also in Paul’s ministry of concern for the poor as part of the ministry priorities.
Anglican Aid is focussing attention on some of the poorest nations, seeking to provide practicl assistance, as well as the ministry of the gospel of Jesus.
