Mission
The charism of mission enables an individual to comfortably and effectively live the Mission of the Church with great zeal and joy. They are driven by the desire to bring others to know the hope of salvation and to learn to live life as a child of God. An individual possessing the gift of mission will faithfully and mutually share what one has learned about God. They have a willingness to be with and share with people different from themselves in heritage, custom, culture, economic background, experience and language. Expressing this gift shows a willingness to speak as well as listen and an awareness that every person is loved by God.
The gift of mission is a special grace given to an individual that allows them to comfortably enter into a culture very different from their own with ease and great acceptance. The people of a culture find it easy to embrace those with this gift. An individual is welcomed into the culture and accepted as a part of the community with unusual quickness.
Being drawn to people of very different cultures, backgrounds, ethnicity and language is evidence of the gift of Mission. This charism is becoming more common as the global world gets smaller through migration, global connectivity and speed of communication across the world. The gift of mission can be expressed in a foreign land or to our newly received neighbors of different cultures.
