The New Wineskins Conference (NWC), coming next month, September 17-20 in Ridgecrest, North Carolina - has become my favorite of many Anglican conferences I have attended through the years. Here’s why. More than any other gathering I’m aware of, NWC immerses orthodox Anglicans in teaching, worship, prayer, and conversation centered on our main calling as Christians: Jesus’ Great Commission to His Church, given in Matthew 28. Jesus commanded His church to go to the ends of the earth, and make disciples of all the nations. New Wineskins is all about mission – international, national, and local.…

The New Wineskins Conference, only 5 weeks away, brings people together from all over the world. Many of them desperately need prayer. Some are missionaries serving in the most difficult mission fields – places of poverty, spiritual oppression, and even violence. Others are serving in churches in our province who also need a touch from the Lord. If you have experience in prayer ministry, will you consider helping to meet this need by being part of the team that prays for them in person? We’ve seen many breakthroughs in this ministry!

Each time believers from around the world gather at the New Wineskins Global Missions Conference, something deeply spiritual takes place, something far greater than a conference schedule or a series of talks. Worshipping together as a global body becomes a living glimpse of Revelation 7:9, where the Apostle John describes “a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.”

Each year, fifty days after Easter, Christians around the world gather to celebrate Pentecost — a moment of divine power, purpose, and promise. It is the birth of the Church, and marks the day the risen Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled His promise by pouring out the Holy Spirit upon His followers. What began as a group of frightened disciples hidden in an upper room transformed into a bold, Spirit-empowered Church sent to the ends of the earth with one mission: to make disciples for the glory of God.

When you attend the upcoming 2025 New Wineskins Global Mission Conference: Hope for the Nations this September, we highly encourage you to visit our mission bookstore. Mission education is crucial to Christian discipleship, church growth, and our active participation in the Great Commission to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19a). From time-tested missional resources to recent publications that provide new insight into the complexities and realities of global mission, our mission bookstore offers a wealth of collected knowledge and experience.

Dear New Wineskins partner, has God ever broken your heart about an issue or group of people that you care about? As we celebrate 50 years of the New Wineskins ministry, I am reflecting back on our founders, Walter and Louise Hannum.…

Hope. I don’t know an individual, a church, or a nation that couldn’t use more hope. As we look at our world, we see what appear to be hopeless situations all around us from our own lives and communities to global conflicts and strife. But, God… As Christians, we know that our hope is not in ourselves or any entity other than our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus is not only the hope for every person in the world, but, indeed, the hope for all nations!…For this reason, God has shown us that our theme for the 2025 New Wineskins Global Mission Conference is to be Hope for the Nations!

My faith journey began at an Episcopal church that was meeting in a school. My husband and I began attending this church with our two young daughters because they were known for their kid’s program. The priest said the salvation prayer during one of the services and said if you’ve never given your life to Jesus, you can pray along with me and begin today. I repeated the words he said silently in my head and began following Jesus.…

New Wineskins Missionary Network is excited to announce the launch of our first global mission curriculum: An Anglican Introduction to Missions (AIM)! The course AIMs to highlight the rich theological, historical, cultural, and strategic aspects of global missions with a focus on the Anglican Communion. The purpose, intention, or AIM of this training is for every Jesus follower in the Anglican Church in North America to be meaningfully engaged with the frontiers of missions by praying, welcoming, sending, supporting, or going to those who have never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ.

As Anglicans, we have been taught about the power of prayer in the Kingdom of God. But do we realize such prayer should focus on fellow Christians, and especially on those who are persecuted for their faith?

It’s sobering, but also joyful, to learn about the persecuted church around the world. At the Anglican Persecuted Church Network, we organize prayer for the persecuted church and coordinate for action.

The One Body: Hope for the Persecuted conference is coming up Friday, September 27, and Saturday, September 28 at St. Mark's Parish, 2024 S. Collins Street, Arlington, TX! So excited about being together with all of you who care about our persecuted brothers and sisters around the world. Read on to learn a few simple things you can do until the date of the One Body conference to help persecuted Christians!

Thirty years ago today, on April 27, 1994, New Wineskins Missionary Network (formerly ECMC, Episcopal Church Missionary Community) held its first Global Mission Conference.…
