In this series, we interview Networking Team members of INFEMIT about the impacts and implications of COVID-19 on our understanding of mission and theology. In this conversation (originally recorded in November of 2020), Al Tizon reflects on COVID-19 in the U.S. and global mission contexts. Now, in mid 2021, it is apparent that it is necessary to continue these conversations in order to reflect on the role of the Church during the pandemic and what mission looks like in the midst of today’s realities.
