Who we are

Sharing Jesus, changing lives

CMS is committed to evangelistic mission, working to see our world transformed by the love of Jesus.

We are inspired by the hope that one day the whole of creation will be restored to a living, loving relationship with God.

Born in 1799, in the crucible of the campaign to abolish slavery, CMS has always had justice and evangelism at its heart.

Today we are a community of people in mission working in over 35 countries – a community that has heard God’s call to join in his loving outreach to the world and has rolled up its sleeves to serve others in mission.

What we do

What is CMS all about? "Mission" is the short answer. But it's one word with a lot of baggage. All around this site you can find concrete examples of how CMS does mission today. It's certainly changed a lot since our foundation in 1799.

Here we go deeper, and look at what mission actually means for us today and how it's changing.
