Good morning
Earlier this month, we let you know that some changes were underway at the
Global Mission Office.
The three staff who remained working in the office after the departure of
the Rev Andrew Bell last week tendered their resignations. This is an amicable
decision on their part, after consideration of the uncertainty concerning the
future shape of the GMO, including the financial sustainability of the current
model. The Rev Stuart Simpson, Kerry Jones and Liz van den Berg will be ensuring a
smooth transition of their work before they are farewelled on 23 December. We
are very thankful for their service to the Church and to our overseas partners.
The Church remains committed to global mission including support for our overseas
partners, and there is no intention of ceasing this work. Any thoughts you might have
about the future shape of our global mission work is welcome and can be directed to
our AES, the Rev Martin Baker.
Yours in Christ
Emma Keown
Convenor
Council of Assembly
