The essentials of the Christian faith
The Anglican Mission celebrates unity in the essential elements of Christian faith, worship, life and ministry. Like trees planted at the waters edge, our Anglican roots are nourished by three streams: the Scripture, the Sacred and the Spirit.
We hold that Scripture guides our lives and is authoritative for us individually and for the Church at large.- We believe the Sacred is embodied in the practices and teachings Christians have held throughout the centuries as expressed in the historic Creeds and 39 Articles of Religion. Our faith has many forms of worship including the sacraments instituted by Jesus.
- We trust God's Spirit is at work in the Church and the world, manifesting His power and preparing us for ministry.
These three streams flow from one source—the truth of our Christian witness as taught by Jesus and His apostles, and together, the Scripture, the Sacred and the Spirit form a river that defines the core values and distinctives shape our identity and guide our words, actions and worship.
At theAM, we also believe God has a specific mission for everyone - including you! We believe serving others puts our Faith in Action creating a tangible expression of God's love and transforming power to change our communities everywhere.

"Jesus said, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.' This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: 'Love others as well as you love yourself.' These two commands are pegs; everything in God's Law and the Prophets hangs from them'." Matthew 22:37-40, The Message
"Jesus, undeterred, went right ahead and gave his charge: ‘God authorized and commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you. I'll be with you as you do this, day after day after day, right up to the end of the age'." Matthew 28:18-22, The Message
