As a church, we support a number of missionary organisations that work to spread the good news of Jesus to people around the world and also to show God’s grace in helping to meet their practical needs. Paper-based literature is available in the Church building but please contact Paul if you would like to receive Missionary Updates by email.
Zambesi Mission is an evangelical, non-denominational agency working in Malawi and northern Mozambique.

For many years, we have supported students studying at the Evangelical Bible College of Malawi through the Zambesi Mission in Bible and ministry training before going or returning to pastoral ministry in Malawi and Mozambique. The College was founded in 1964. Our current sponsored student Jylos is in his third year of study at EBCoM. Update: https://zambesimission.org/this-is-our-bible-college/
We have for many years supported the work of Will Niven working as a church planter and pastor in Albania. Will’s work is supported through the IGT. The purpose of the trust is to promote the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the planting of indigenous Albanian churches and to be a resource of Christian work and co-operation in general among the Albanian peoples wherever they may be.
Mission India UK is seeking to reach the hundreds of millions in India who have never heard the Christian message, most of them in rural poverty. Through children's literacy groups, adult literacy classes and church planter sponsorship, Mission India seeks to bring a message of hope and a better life to the many disadvantaged peoples of India. Over recent years, GBC have been able to support through MI both children's literacy work and church planting into a few of the 500,000 unreached villages and regions in the Indian sub-continent.
