Introduction to Mission (Catholic Identity Series)

The Church is by its very nature missionary (Ad Gentes 2). Mission is its very reason for existing. It is the Church’s beginning, endpoint, and life of the Church.  It is mission which creates Church, and the Church is at the service of the mission. Mission is not an instrument of the Church, rather Church is the instrument of mission.

This course of eight sessions is for all those who want to explore the breadth and depth of their personal and professional life lived as mission, aligning that with God’s dream for all creation. It is especially helpful for those in leadership roles of mission; school leaders and teachers, staff and volunteers of Catholic agencies and organisations, who work daily for the realisation of God’s kingdom in the world.

This course is fully online and can be completed at the participant's preferred time, although there are weekly activities and a due date for the assessment tasks.
