Mission


Mission: This is a local Episcopal congregation that is not able to be financially self-supporting. The congregation's rector is the diocesan bishop, and the bishop appoints a priest-in-charge as his/her representative, commonly referred to as a vicar. The equivalent of the vestry would be the mission council. Usually a mission does not have a full-time minister and does not have the full complement of daily or weekly services.
   When a mission is able to be self-supporting, it may apply to be admitted to the diocese as a parish.
