history
Anglicans in Mission was a national Anglican program authorized by the 1980 General Synod in which the various dioceses agreed to cooperate. Coordinated between a professional fund raising agency, national and diocesan staff, the purpose of the program was to study mission needs and identify priorities in participating dioceses, the nation as a whole, and overseas, and to raise funds toward those needs.
