“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations”. Matthew 28v19
We believe that Jesus’ command applies as much to his disciples today as it did when He said it. By ‘mission’ we mean simply being sent to share the good news of Jesus. We may be sent no further than our next door neighbour, our workplace or the school gate; we may be sent to the other side of the world; we’re all sent.
Mission and Me
The Kairos course is a great way to learn about the challenges of mission and to explore what “Blessed to be a blessing” means for you.
It is a reading-based course that also includes plenty of DVDs, discussion and role play.
