Info
Although there are currently no long-term mission workers from the UK in Zimbabwe, BMS World Mission does support Baptist partners in the region. Since the beginning of our partnership BMS has been supporting basic biblical training, pastoral formation and church planting programmes. Baptists in Zimbabwe have formed an association running vitally important feeding programmes for thousands of families.
