Abstract
This thesis lays the groundwork for Christian congregations engaged in mission. It emerged from my shared experience and reflections of the Christians in Newport engaged in Mission.
The focal point of exploration of the thesis was how Christians in Newport in South Wales defined their Christian task and how this affected their expression in the Communities where they lived. This thesis seeks to give a voice to the views of the People in Newport.
A detailed overview of the historical and current status is explored and described. This reveals a considerable change and adaptation in missiology, Church expression and new forms of church.
The current experience of some groups of Christians in Newport is described based on extensive fieldwork. Three congregations are presented and analysed.
The thesis concludes by sowing seeds of a new paradigm in contextual Congregational mission studies.
