CMS

What is CMS?

It is The Church Mission Society and is primarily a worldwide community of believers who passionately believe that Jesus is Lord of All and want the world to know Jesus. Every member of CMS seeks to be involved in the mission of Jesus and to encourage the church in its local and global mission.

What does CMS actually do?

CMS was founded in 1799 and has sent out about 10,000 mission partners to most continents of the world, including Europe. Working often in pioneer situations and with radical local Christian leaders CMS is committed to making disciples, resourcing leaders and transforming communities around the world.
