Caribbean and North America Council for Mission (CANACOM)

CANACOM is a mission partnership of churches in the Caribbean and North America which practices a unique vision of God’s mission, based on mutuality. The mission statement of CANACOM is to bear common witness, to challenge and empower one another for creative involvement in mission. There is a common understanding that mission begins at home. All are invited to begin in their Jerusalem, then to Judea, Samaria and to the ends of the earth. CANACOM was established in 1986.

CANACOM is both FACILITATOR and COLLABORATOR. CANACOM facilitates the mission of member churches in their own context as well as common initiatives within the partnership. As collaborator, they contribute to a common pool or ‘roundtable’ through which the resources are shared. All churches serve as donors and receivers, together determining how the common resources are to be identi ed and used. A number of programmes incarnate the vision of mission.
