Historic Mission at St Johns
On this page you will find some of the historic projects that the church has supported over the years, we recognise that this is part of the history of the church – so don’t want to lose these interesting foundational items.
CMS – Peter & Sally Bartlett in Paraguay
Peter and Sally are CMS mission partners living and working in Paraguay. They previously served in Bolivia from 1992 to 2005 where they established the congregation of Cristo el Salvador. They then spent three years at Parr St Peter’s in the diocese of Liverpool. Peter became the Anglican bishop of Paraguay at the invitation of the diocese’s leaders and was consecrated on 29 March 2009.
We support Peter and Sally financially. Our mission team keeps the congregation in regular touch with what Peter and Sally are doing, and what God is doing through them.
Bible Society – Translation of Bible into Albanian
Soon after the Communist regime fell in 1991, the founders of the Albanian Bible Society launched its greatest project – to make an accurate, contemporary version of the Bible available to the Albanian people in their own language. The New Testament was published in 1992, and work still continues on the Old. With an Albanian Bible translator as a member of our congregation, we have supported this work for several years.
