Making disciples of Jesus in communities where he is least known
Will you join with Serving in Mission UK as we seek to reach the thousands of communities around the world who still need to hear of the transformational love
of Jesus?
Billions of people, in the world’s least-reached people groups, are living and dying without hearing the good news of Jesus.
Compelled by Christ’s love, we join with churches to carry the hope of the gospel where he is least-known.
Explore how you can play your part in God’s global mission.
How would you like to get involved?
Prayer:
Father, fill my heart with compassion for those who have never heard your name or experienced your love.

“The Church is by nature missionary, to the extent that if it ceases to be missionary, it has not just failed in one of its tasks, it has ceased to be the Church.”
Andrew Kirk
The centrality of the Church
We work hand-in-hand with evangelical churches, to send, support and receive gospel workers equipped to make disciples of Jesus, where people live and die without hearing the good news of Jesus.
More than 300 churches from the UK send workers overseas with us, and a growing number are now also receiving mission workers from overseas to help them reach out to their local communities.
If you are a church looking to send or receive mission workers, or you’d like access to training or resources, please do get in contact.
