Church of Scotland
World Mission is more than just a phrase - It's about global connections. It's about two way traffic; sharing Christ and learning from each other. It's about partnership. It's about being involved. It's about being active.
The remit of the Board of World Mission has been endorsed by the General Assembly. At the General Assembly in May 2001 the remit of the board was defined as: Give life to the Church of Scotland's understanding that it is part of the universal church committed to the advance of the Kingdom of God throughout the world.
