The members of the
Council wish to place on record their gratitude to Bishop Edward Darling for
his dedication to the work of the Council.
The Rt Rev Michael Mayes had been appointed to chair the Council.
Rev Charles Irwin was
appointed as the Church of Ireland Mission Resource Person and took up office
during September 2000.
A Joint Working Group of
the two mission councils met several times throughout the year. A Joint Conference is planned for autumn
2001 with a view to looking at models of integrating the work of the two
mission councils of the Church.
During the year the Very
Rev PL Towers took over from Miss Karin Jonsson as Church of Ireland
representative at the bi-monthly meetings of CCOM. The key themes have been of co-operation between mission
agencies, and the need to create a sense of unity with the Anglican Communion
by sending people to areas that feel isolated.
The “All God’s Children”
project prepared by five mission societies (MAM, USPG, CMSI, SAMS, Crosslinks)
was given support throughout the Church.
The project focused on children
in 5 different areas around the world.
1,500 copies of the
report on the Millennium Mission Conference “We have a Gospel” have been
circulated along with a study guide.
Over 30 groups requested extra copies.
