About

Founded from Church Missionary Society in 2008, CMS-Africa exits to provide a linkage between Missionary work in Africa to the churches and communities through wholistic development. The church has been on the continent for over two thousand years and has experienced tremendous growth for the last two centuries. This growth holds incredible potential for the healing of Africa. Yet all too often the church is disengaged from the crying needs of the community, focusing exclusively on spiritual concerns. Despite Christians being a majority in many African communities, poverty disease conflict and environmental degradation abound. This appalling State of affairs propels CMS-Africa to focus on wholistic transformation of the society by working the church, families and individuals. CMS-Africa is as passionate about missionary work as it is about transforming mindsets and creating an enabling environment in Africa and beyond so that the People of God build their own solutions and take ownership of their future. CMS-Africa's promises are fulfilled in partnership with church and the local communities using our wholistic approaches including capacity building and empowerment programs that spur communities for transformation through renewed mindsets.
