Convinced that no one should live and die without hearing God’s good news, we believe that he has called us to make disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ in communities where he is least known.
The task of taking Christ to the least reached continues to be a live issue for the church today. Our world may be changing, but the message of Jesus remains the same.
The sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection of Jesus is the message of salvation that we want to share with those who have never heard. It was this good news of a Messiah who could forgive sins that caused the church to spread rapidly in the early years and it’s this message of grace and hope that will see churches being planted and growing around the world amongst the least reached.
For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those
who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.
2 Corinthians 5:14

We provide a vital service in a place where there’s no state provision for healthcare and can share the gospel as we treat people. The effect of all of us working together creates not a triumph of achievement, but a triumph that displays what God can do through his broken people.

How can you get involved?
One of the greatest joys of following Jesus is the opportunity to serve God and play a part in spreading the gospel around the world and make disciples of all nations. Whether serving overseas, or encouraging the work from the UK, there are lots of ways you can be involved with Serving In Mission.
Encourage your church’s heart for mission
We find that people develop their heart for mission because of the culture and mission-minded nature of their church.
Whether that’s through Bible studies, praying for the world, or preaching and teaching on God’s heart for the lost, are there ways that we can support your church?
Support the sending of new workers
Can you donate to us as we recruit, train, support, and send new mission workers around the world and also receive people into the UK on our Engage programme?
Give to workers and projects
Can you support projects and mission workers around the world, so they’re not held back or limited by the lack of finances?
We have seen the generosity of people and churches over the past few years strengthen the global church and helping more people come into relationship with Jesus.
Pray, pray, pray
Can you pray with us? Everything we do at SIM is only possible by the power of prayer and each week, we give thanks as we see God at work in situations large and small, to create opportunities and open doors to the sharing of the gospel.
Go
Whether it’s across the street or around the world, there are many different ways to serve with SIM.
Take a look at our range of opportunities to see if there’s a place that God can use your gifts and abilities.
Volunteer in the UK
We are forming groups of people around the UK with a passion for cross-cultural mission and who want to get others involved and support our workers. If you’d like to help with one of these groups, please get in contact.
God provided the opportunity for me to serve him as a midwife in a part of the world where women aren’t cherished liked they should be. I use my skills to build relationships and remind them of the outrageous love God has for them.
