I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
John 13.34-35
When the Tring Parish was formed in 1980 the first Team wide committee that was formed was the Mission Committee. Mission has an important place in the life of our parish. At the heart of this has been the belief that Mission is a two way process. We have provided financial support for specific ‘missions’ and we grow by learning about them and from them about what the Gospel means in different contexts.
Each year we support 6 organisations some local and some abroad. For 2 months we focus on one of them. During this time we:
- pray for them
- learn about them
- often invite guest preachers to visit us
- raise money for them
