We are part of God’s work to transform the lives of people in Colorado, to bring God’s kingdom to the state of Colorado. We are a diocese which has an intentional program for church redevelopment, systematically plants new churches in response to mission opportunities, and offers all churches resources and assistance in church health and growth.
The purpose of the Mission Strategy Committee is to energize, support and grow the Church by developing a comprehensive strategy of evangelism that establishes new congregations and develops existing congregations throughout the Diocese of Colorado.

The Church is the Body of Christ with many members, each part having a role and function. The cooperation of the whole comes from direction from the head of the Body, Jesus. The many members can be individual people, small groups with particular ministry functions, or congregations with particular callings for ministry in particular contexts. At times, ministry is better achieved through a cooperative effort of several congregations working together in a particular context. In any context, the Body is more effective as all the parts exercise their ministries toward the mission and vision given by Jesus, the Head.
