CPAS are an Anglican evangelical mission agency. That's three jargon words right there, but basically that means:

• they sit squarely within the Church of England (Anglican);
• they are passionate about telling others about the relationship with God humanity can have thanks to Jesus (evangelism);
• and engaged in mission (that everyone shoud have the opportunity to hear about Jesus' life-changing work, and have repeated opportunities to respond to that should they choose).

They believe that the message of the gospel is relevant to all people, and that effective local church ministry is the key to seeing men, women, young people and children come to find faith in Christ, should they so choose.
