I realize I am an idiot when it comes to Views, but I can not for the life of me figure out how to display an OG's mission as a block on all of that group's posts.

Anyone?

I found out how, which is also applicable for any CCK field added to an Organic Group.

First, forget using the actual mission field. You'll need to use CCK (text widget/text area type) to create a new field that will serve this purpose. I called mine 'Info Box'.

Populate a test Group with some data in this field (I used a logo, and an address.)

Next, with Views, create a new View with the settings as shown in this screenshot (it was pure trial and error that got me here):

I can't guarantee you there isn't a better way. Probably there is. But this worked for me.

Thanks for providing the details on this. I think I'll try to implement it.
