What do missionaries do?
All Christians are called to join in God’s mission. For some, this means going overseas, for others, staying closer to home.
Whether overseas or domestic, missionaries are pioneering, evangelistic, relational, and faithful.
Missionaries are committed to sharing Christ’s love to renew people and places, to raise new leaders and help people on the margins to flourish.
How do I become a missionary?
Do you believe God is calling you to serve as a missionary?
A good place to find out more about mission opportunities is the Church Mission Society and the United Society Partners in the Gospel.
Church Mission Society groups provide opportunities to get together for prayer, learning and participation in mission.
There are Church Mission Society members working in forty countries, as well as helping Christians in the UK receive the gifts of the global church.
United Society Partners in the Gospel is an Anglican mission agency supporting churches around the world theologically, financially, and practically in their mission to bring fullness of life to the communities they serve.
Your starting point is to meet with your own vicar, chaplain, or equivalent, to talk with them about your sense of calling. You should also arrange to meet with the vocations team in your diocese.
