A young church in Texas is now forging a partnership with young church plants in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. “Even with our relatively small resources, young mothers can launch missionary movements, and rectors can make a difference in the nations.”
~The Rev. Can. Jon Beadle

In the ongoing work of the Kingdom of God, nothing is more important than intercessory prayer.

The Anglican Prayer for All Nations Network (APFANN) seeks to help the Church respond to God’s call to uphold and advance His kingdom through prayer and praise. We seek to increase the number of Anglicans interceding regularly for the world.

Firstly, missions are not simply a part of ministry: they are the ministry. Jesus outlined his vision for the ministry of the Church in the Great Commission. And the Great Commission is exactly what it sounds like: a mission, a task to accomplish—to go and spread the good news! But as much as it is a mission, the Great Commission is also a command.

I wanted to find a ‘fun’ MAP talk from the long list 90 breakout options, and one talk jumped off the list: How to start a Thrift Store! What a divine appointment in an unexpected place! As Kim Perri beautifully taught us how to set up a thrift store to raise money for missions, I knew that my vision was possible. I truly felt ‘on fire’ as I returned home and shared the vision with members of the breast cancer community.

This past September, seven of us from Immanuel attended the New Wineskins for Global Mission Conference in North Carolina. This was the 30th year for this triannual gathering, and more than 1500 Anglicans participated. Jesus’ command to “make disciples of all nations” came alive in a powerful way as we prayed, sang, ate, conversed, and learned among Christians from over 60 countries. His command is being obeyed; the prayer that the Father’s kingdom would come to earth is being answered. But the fulfillment of the commission to introduce Jesus to all people in every nation is still ongoing.

As half a million people travel to San Francisco for Super Bowl LX (February 8th), the New Wineskins Anglican Freedom Network calls for prayer.

What if the thousands of people who gather for high-profile sporting events like the Super Bowl could become a force for good?

At New Wineskins Missions Network, we are profoundly grateful for the dedicated men and women who help advance global missions through their faithful service on our Board of Trustees. Today, we want to express our deep appreciation for two such servants who have given generously of their time, leadership, and hearts: The Rev. Canon Bob Lawrence and Dana Standridge.

“No Christian should sleep well at night while our brothers and sisters are being martyred,” said the late Charles Colson. Colson, founder of Prison Fellowship and former “hatchet man” for President Richard Nixon, was one of the top Christian leaders who in 1996 committed to promoting a worldwide day of prayer specifically to pray for persecuted Christians.

On a Saturday morning in August 2023, Reverend Brian from the Anglican Church of Uganda stood in a remote forest clearing near his church on an island in Lake Victoria.

It was a normal Wednesday chapel service, in Hughes Auditorium. But a dozen students stayed afterword for prayer, and students kept coming back to the chapel. Then the group of students grew, and never left, staying for prayer, repentance, worship, reading of scripture, and exhortation.

From September 22nd to 25th, the American Anglican Council (AAC) attended the New Wineskins for Global Mission Conference in Ridgecrest, NC, directed by Jenny Noyes. Some 1,600 Anglicans from around the globe attended this triennial gathering focused on global missions. Included were archbishops, bishops, clergy, lay leaders, and many youth and children. It was a wonderful, Spirit-filled, worshipping reunion of Anglicans on fire for local and global mission.

My family and I are preparing to be sent overseas in the coming weeks, and as we travel around the country, sharing our calling with anyone who will listen, we are again presented with an opportunity to “remember.”

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected seemingly the entire world in unprecedented ways. It’s easy to get caught up in how it has impacted our individual lives, or the lives of our families, or the lives of our loved ones. As followers of Jesus, though, we need to always be mindful of our neighbors…

In 2007, my wife, Carol, and I joined another couple from Christ Church Anglican, Savannah to attend the New Wineskins Conference. The Lord used the first two talks by Bishop Derek Eaton and Bishop Rennis Ponniah, which by “accident” both focused on the call of Abraham in Geneses 12:1, to confirm a call to Carol and me to sell our business and get ready to do full time mission work.

In January, the former Archbishop and Primate of the Church of Uganda died and was celebrated. His funeral was not only a national event, it was an international marker of the amazing changes in Africa, especially within the Anglican churches of Africa.

The name of the indigenous Anglican presence in Spain is the Iglesia Española Reformada Episcopal (IERE), or as it is often called in English, the Reformed Episcopal Church of Spain.

“The low temperature on the East coast will be colder than the high temperature on Mars this weekend,” Nate shared while driving with our fellows to run some errands before our departure to Thailand the next day.

Space is tight in the Phnom Penh chapel where Cambodian Anglican Christians have gathered to worship on a Sunday morning.
