Biblical Foundations of Mission - Archbishop Mark Coleridge, Archdiocese of Brisbane

A central aim of this conference is to provide for people already involved in work for the Kingdom of God in ministries as diverse as Catholic Education, Aboriginal Ministry and St Vincent de Paul a sound theological vision of mission that will affirm these people in the knowledge that what they are doing is part of God’s and therefore the Church’s mission and to encourage and enable them in their vocation. To do this we need to go back to the roots of missionary work, the Scriptures. Archbishop Coleridge, a Biblical scholar as well as archbishop will explore the foundation, imperative, motivation and inspiration for mission to be found in the Bible.
