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.
Opportunities to serve God
Serving In Mission UK sends mission workers around the world to work in multinational teams. There are hundreds of opportunities in more than 70 countries for you to use your gifts, skills and resources to serve.
You could be the person that a team has been praying for to come and help them further the advance of God’s kingdom.

How you can pray
We have fresh prayers every day to pray for what God is doing around the world. These can be prayer requests or points for thanksgiving and praise.

Can you take time each day to pray for God’s work?

Pray with Lizzie in Peru
Lizzie and Noemi are planning a Peruvian jungle outreach trip for June. Travel is long, complex and prohibits frequent follow-up visits, so they’re looking to train local leaders to do this. Pray for the small village churches and those who want to start new ones – that this will support their work.

Give thanks for new trainees
Give thanks for 51 new first year Pan-African Academy of Christian Surgeon trainees, who will learn and serve in 12 different countries.

Pray for more workers
Give thanks with a worker in the north of England: “Some women at our English Class are asking good questions about the stories. Recently a lady asked more about the ‘living water’ in the story about the woman at the well. Pray more people from our church would be willing to help out – we need more committed volunteers.”
“Prayer is the only way any of us can be effective in this spiritual battle – and we’re so grateful for every time you mention us or the needs we share with you, to our heavenly Father.”

Stories of God at work
“The longer you’re there, the more you see it: long-term plans that you look back on and say: ‘Wow! God’s amazing’.”
Paul and Hilary Gunning – Namibia

“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.”

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.
