Anglican Awakening Worship in Vancouver, BC 2007

Christ Awakening for Mission Worldwide

We are the sponsors of the Anglican Awakenings profiled above. CAMW is a new movement of evangelistic, kingdom mission is here. Across America, Anglicans are gathering in Mission. 

The vision for Christ Awakening for Mission Worldwide flows from Christ’s miraculous catch of fish found in the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 5. , Christ abundantly filled the fishermen's net, and they, in turn, called to their partners in another boat to pull this miraculous catch in together.

Our Master called his disciples to be fishers of men. Today, we are following in their footsteps...calling to the boats of our Anglican family to pull with us on the harvest net.

Tomorrow, by God's grace, we will be calling to the whole Body of Christ from every nation to come alongside to evangelize the world. 

You'll hear all about it during our October or November regional events in Boston and Akron, but you can check this mighty move out right now at:

More than 1,000 Anglicans to meet in Ohio

From the Common Cause Website

 

Unity isn’t real unless it is embraced at the local level. That is something that somewhere between 1,000 and 2,000 Anglicans of many different jurisdictions will be living out when they meet together in Ohio this October.

They will be participating in a national movement called Anglican Awakening, which is a part of the larger Christ Awakening for Mission Worldwide, said the Rev Canon Doc Loomis, Great Lakes Anglican Co-chair and Canon Missioner for the Anglican Mission in the Americas. The event, which will be held at St. Luke’s in Akron, OH October 21–23 will bring together the leaders and congregations of the Great Lakes Anglican Network, a group of 50 congregations from eight different Anglican jurisdictions. Bishop Roger Ames, in residence at St. Luke's, is Great Lakes Anglican's co-chairman with Loomis and is the event host.

 

Anglican Awakening events aim to prepare people to work together to share the gospel. They focus on helping local congregations understand how they can do mission together and celebrate their new relationships with one another.

“We’re going from Common Cause to common ground…It is [asking] how do we work together in mission. We will reach more lost people if we join hands,” said the Rev. William Beasley of the Anglican Mission in the Americas.

 

Anglican Awakening is also helping orthodox Anglicans accept responsibility for their own weakness and divisions and to ask forgiveness of God and of each other. “What some are seeing as a very depressing time in the church, with a lot of brokenness and division, we are seeing as a very encouraging time… We found ourselves in a wonderful place, which is broken and on our knees,” said Loomis.

 

The Anglican Awakening movement began in the Chicago area. Beasley and Chief Jimmy Gboyega Delano, who serves as Secretary for the Convocation of Anglicans in North America, were two early organizers.

 

According to both Beasley and Delano, the Awakening movement initially brings conservative Anglicans together, but it won’t stop there. These two, and other supporters of the movement, have a truly global and trans-denominational vision of helping Christians come together in one body to share the good news of Jesus Christ. “We see them all coming together under Christ, that is what I am spending the rest of my life for,” said Delano.
