Many outside the Episcopal Church think of us as an assemblage of the privileged and indolent, unaware that an energized sense of mission has characterized our denomination since its gathering in 1789. Mary A. Thompson's 1871 manifesto "O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling, to tell to all the world that God is light" has provided the rallying cry for Episcopalians throughout our catholic and evangelical outreach to others for a century and a half.  Join us back in the Gallery for the third session in Tim Sabin and Jim Holmes' Lenten series on the Episcopal Church.
