- Prologue
- The report of the Partners in Mission was presented by Mrs. Kay Childs.
- Partners in Mission concept was ennunciated at the Anglican Consultative Council meeting in Dublin in 1973. The National Executive Council meeting in November 1974 included a Partners in Mission consultation. A number of Canadian Anglicans have attended other Partners in Mission meetings in various parts of the world.
- At a meeting held November 4 to reflect on the impact of Partners in Mission in the life of the Canadian Church those attending were able to identify many areas where Partners in Mission is a reality; ie. General Synod and many areas in dioceses and some parishes. A number of questions were raised for reflection:
- - How do we tie in the personal experience of members of consultations into our Church life?
- - How is this concept being implemented as part of Theology '76?
- - Once Partners have been established - how do we sustain relationships?
- - What difference has the Partners in Mission made to you? to your parish? to your diocese? to the committees on which you serve?
- - What are you personally doing about Partners in Mission?
- - What do we want to get out of a Partnership?
- - What are we willing to give to a Partnership?
- - Are partners only overseas? What about Diocese to Diocese? Parish to Parish?
- - How do we choose partners?
