About BMS World Mission

BMS works among some of the most marginalised and least evangelised people, as well as those forced to flee home, in some of the most fragile places on earth.

The highest goal of all we do is to bring people to faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and an experience of the abundant life that only he can provide.

Heart for the gospel

Your support for BMS takes the good news of Jesus to places where it’s never been known. Every year, thousands of people in the hardest-to-reach countries hear the gospel through BMS work. You can help reach the least evangelised today…

Hope for the world

BMS supporters deliver practical help to people in desperate circumstances. By providing pathways to education, flourishing livelihoods and good healthcare for those with the fewest opportunities, you tackle injustice and suffering, and bring hope to the world…

Help for the journey

More people than ever find themselves displaced, by war, natural disasters or persecution. Whether dispersed within their own countries or forced across borders, your prayers and donations mean people on the move are met with support, shelter and a warm welcome…
