The Anglican Mission Agencies have a very important role in the Church of England’s international relationships. Each of the Agencies works in different ways. Some work overseas and some work only in the UK.

In the Church of England, we value our relationships with churches across the world.

The Church of England has over 10,000 churches in rural areas and 40% of those who attend church go to rural churches. We are committed to supporting rural churches in their mission and helping them to grow.

The Mission Theology & Apologetics Group (MTAG) serves the churches by reflecting on issues affecting the mission and ministry of the Church and creating resources to deepen discipleship, to energise service to all, and to enable faith sharing. 

Online contact provides a novel context for the ancient mission of the Church, to make and grow new disciples.

Resourcing a church shaped for mission.

The Revd Sue Hughes shares how The Yurt Missional Community grew out of a traditional and rural market town parish, St Mary’s & St Peter’s in Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. 

Imagine if every church in the UK had a person who is equipped to help the whole church make Jesus known together with words and action. HOPE Together is recruiting local church Mission Champions to do just that, with loads of help, resources, ideas and encouragement from us.
