History of the Link
The
Link began in 1992 and was effective from November 1993, developing
the companion link between the Sheffield and Argentina Dioceses
from the Sheffield end. We are a working group, responsible to
the Diocese’s Mission Committee, comprising Clergy and
Laity. Individuals interested in this mission group will be welcomed
to its 4/5 times per year meetings, or at its organised functions.
The Link is with the Anglican Churches and the projects that
they support in the Southern Diocese of Argentina.
The Diocesan Synod selected Argentina following a process of
linking brokered by Partnership for World Mission. A parallel
process took place in Argentina.
The partnership is now into its second five year term and its
aims are;
To widen the churches’ vision and help raise awareness
of belonging to the world church.
To learn from each other’s experience.
To support and encourage each other.
