Anglican Frontier Missions is an American-based Christian mission organization that "seeks to plant viable, biblically-based, indigenous churches in areas of the world where there is very little Christian presence, in areas of North Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and even some ethnic communities in the United States."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.anglicanfrontiers.com/about-afm-2/ )〕 ==History== Anglican Frontier Missions originated at a meeting of 23 leaders of the Episcopal Church on November 1, 1990 (All Saints' Day), coinciding with the first year of the "Decade of Evangelism" of the Anglican Communion. Their decision to form a missionary society came to fruition three years later.〔Donald S. Armentrout (Editor), Robert Boak Slocum (Editor). ''An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church: A User-Friendly Reference for Episcopalians.'' p. 17. New York: Church Publishing, 2000〕 Founded by the Rev. E. A. de Bordenave in 1993, Anglican Frontier Missions is notable in that it uses a non-denominational approach to missions, recruiting from any denomination in order to reach the 24% of the world's population who have not heard the Christian message. This approach is new within Anglicanism. "This is like the first Radio Shack in New York City. We've got a market out there waiting to be tapped."〔Ed Briggs. "Episcopal Priest Here Founds Missionary Group", ''Richmond Times Dispatch''/ p. B8. Feb 20, 1993〕 Anglican Frontier Mission provided a new paradigm for Episcopal mission societies in relating to a denomination (the Episcopal Church of the United States) and with other mission organizations (International Mission Board and Interdev).〔Robert Blincoe. The Strange Structure of Mission Agencies. Part 3. Desired Symbiosis. Church and Mission Structures. International Journal of Frontier Missions 19:3. Fall 2002 p. 45. http://www.ijfm.org/PDFs_IJFM/19_3_PDFs/43_46_Blincoe_3rd_paper.pdf〕 This was part of a larger movement within the Episcopal Church in response to budget problems similar to the South American Missionary Society, Episcopal World Mission and the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge.〔Robert Prichard. ''A History of the Episcopal Church.'' Harrisburg,PA: Morehouse, 1999. p. 306.〕
