As I thought about the "mission" and "purpose" of this ministry I realized how simplistic it is.  You see  I have a vision and a hope for the Bride to be spotless and wrinkle free.  I see her waiting at the window with curtains parted, shades drawn and gown donned.  Looking to the Heavens awaiting her lovers arrival. 
     However, she is doing more than standing, she is singing.  She is singing a love song that she has written just for Him.  A new song that no ears have heard and no voice has uttered.  As she sings, her lover is wooed.  He longs for her with a passion that is indescribable and uncomprehensible.  Mounted upon His angelic thoroughbred with His eyes affixed on His lover and His ears harkened to His Father's voice. 
One word, one word is all He longs to hear.  "GO"  "Go to your Bride, my Son, the time is at hand, GO!"
     Do you see what I see?  Can you feel the passion that draws these two lovers together?  I pray you can.  I pray you ready yourself for Him.  I pray the church unites every part of herself into a perfectly knitted and formed body that holds fast to her virtue and honor. 
     What part will you play?  What difference will you make in your church, in your community, in your family?  What note will you sing?  Let us come together, let us be readied and let us sing!
     So the answer is this;
"Mission"; help ready the Bride. 
"Purpose"; for His coming!
