Anglican Mission
Anglicanism began as a missionary effort by Christians from continental Europe during the Roman and early Medieval periods, such as Augustine of Canterbury in the 6th century. In the centuries after the Reformation, English missionaries took Anglican Christianity to the four corners of the earth, an effort that continues to this day. These articles spotlight missional endeavors such as church planting, evangelism, global missions, and chaplaincy.
