Mission Team

The Mission Team works with Lichfields schools, parishes, fresh expressions, chaplaincies, along with the cathedral, to energise, resource and support them in mission and evangelism. Mission and evangelism are the calling of all forms of Christian community and ministry. The team supports that by providing: 

• News, learning and the latest issues and good practice; 
• Knowledge, processes and skill development for those in our frontlines; 
• Facilitation and support for teams and networks; 
• Insight and resource to senior clergy and staff;
• An interface with Church House and the wider church. 

Reflecting the diversity of Gods creation, we recognise that each school, parish, fresh expression and chaplaincy has its own unique context and community, as of course, does the cathedral. Mission and evangelism are therefore particular and distinctive in every setting. We work collaboratively with people as experts in their own mission field. We believe that discovering evangelism and mission in context can be joyful as well as challenging and look forward to sharing and supporting the diocese's frontlines in that.
