An Anglican Mission Church
For generations the United States and other nations in the ‘west’ sent missionaries, armed with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to the far reaches of the globe. But the light that was once America has dimmed, as we find ourselves in a deep state of spiritual need and hunger, searching for true meaning and significance. Particularly since 9/11, Americans are desperate for hope and direction that only the Gospel can provide.
America has become a vast mission field, itself. The United States is now home to the largest population of un-churched and spiritually disconnected English speaking people in the world, yet also a country where the only religion losing members is Christianity. At the same time, Christianity is experiencing a dynamic renewal and expansion in many other parts of the world, including Africa, South America and Asia.
Now is the time. In a groundbreaking response, some leaders of the Anglican Church in Africa and Asia have acted to provide seeds of hope for the dire situation in the United States, by establishing the Anglican Mission in America (AMiA). This new movement, like a wave of the Spirit, is quickly gaining momentum, encouraged by the connection to revivals in other parts of the globe. The Anglican Mission is charged with building an alliance of congregations committed to gathering, planting and serving dynamic congregations in the Anglican tradition. New Covenant is a congregation of the AMiA.
We’re moving forward in the God-given opportunity to plant and strengthen churches that will have a powerful impact in our culture. We invite you to ‘catch the wave’ and join us in this transforming adventure of the Anglican Mission in America. Learn more about the Anglican Mission in America.
An Anglican Church
As Anglicans, we’re part of the global relationship of churches established over the centuries by the Church of England, a church that is experiencing tremendous growth and renewal in many locations, particularly the “2/3 world.” Our worship is both ancient and modern. Anglicans have always upheld the Holy Scriptures as God’s Word and we stand on the two great creeds, the Apostles’ and Nicene, as the fundamental statements of Christian belief.
We celebrate the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper as commanded by Jesus and we uphold the historic order of Bishops in the administration of the church’s life and mission.
Our approach to worship, based in ancient practice, engages the senses—connecting with people’s hearts and minds. This means that Anglican churches are in a unique place to capture the imagination of a society immersed in the images of the media and internet.
The Anglican Mission in America is poised to usher in a new movement of God’s Spirit in this nation, as we follow Him and seek to build His Kingdom.
