Church Mission Society sets the target for 1,000 Mission Resolutions

Church Mission Society is looking for 1,000 people to make Kingdom-minded resolutions this New Year.

The We Are Saying Yes campaign is being launched to inspire people to make resolutions that put a bit more of God’s mission into their everyday life.

Some of the suggestions on the campaign website including praying for the person in front in the supermarket queue, joining a campaign, making friends with someone of another faith, and fasting from impulse buys.

CMS web manager Jeremy Woodham said: “So many people have given up making resolutions because they think they’ll never keep them.

“We’re giving people the chance to make a resolution that matters – and providing a space for them to share tips, ask for prayer and tell their stories.

“We think the impact of 1,000 people taking a small step in mission could have a fantastic ripple effect.”

People are being invited to upload photos and videos of themselves making and carrying out their resolutions on Facebook and the We Are Saying Yes website.

They can also use the website to post their prayer requests, ask for advice, share stories and promote their own mission events.
