Hosted by Washington National Cathedral, the 35-minute event was moderated by David Crabtree, news anchor at WRAL-TV in North Carolina and an ordained deacon.

Presiding Bishop Jefferts Schori and Archbishop Tutu focused on God’s mission in our lives and in the world, as related to the Anglican Five Marks of Mission.

The Anglican Five Marks of Mission

The Five Marks of Mission were developed by the Anglican Consultative Council between 1984 and 1990 and have won wide acceptance among Anglicans, and have given parishes and dioceses around the world a practical and memorable "checklist" for mission activities.

The Five Marks of Mission are:
1. To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
2. To teach, baptize and nurture new believers
3. To respond to human need by loving service
4. To seek to transform unjust structures of society
5. To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth
