Meet Our Synod Speaker

We are privileged to be welcoming The Right Reverend Dr. Yassir Eric, Bishop of The Diocese of EKKIOS, as speaker at this year’s Synod. Formed in 2023, GAFCON explains the mission of EKKIOS and Bishop Yassir as follows: “EKKIOS draws its identity from two ancient Greek words: Ekklessia (the Church) and Kyrios (Lord). Together, these two words reflect the mission and vision of the Diocese—a community called by Jesus, gathered under His Lordship, and sent out into world as faithful witnesses.” Bishop Yassir is specifically serving Muslim-background believers (MBB’s) from around the world. Drawing from his background as a Muslim, he is helping MBB’s find a church home with, “…apostolic grounding, theological depth, historical continuity, and global partnership in the mission of the Gospel.”

Heritage Mission

Heritage Mission, a partner ministry with DCOH, serves in care facilities by bringing the church to them. It trains churches and volunteers to start worship service by providing free, professional training, resources, and coaching. Redemption Anglican Church in The Colony, Texas has embraced the ministry and has seen the team’s efforts bear fruit. This video provides an excellent explanation and insight into this precious ministry.
