Union exists to raise leaders, grow healthy churches and help everyday believers delight in God.

If we want to see flourishing churches, we need leaders who love God and share his passions. From Egypt to Ethiopia and Madagascar to the Middle East, we are partnering with local ministries to provide all-round support for ministry and church growth.

Our ministry partners connect with us through one area of the ministry and are encouraged to make use of other resources we can offer them, whether that's theological books and content paving the way for conferences and events, access to financial resources for students who are church planting, or supporting partners with book translations into low-access languages.

"Our vision is to see churches flourishing in the gospel and driving forward in mission. To see this, we grow leaders to grow Christ's church around the world." Michael Reeves, President of Union

Union Mission: Supporting church planting and revitalisation

Everything we do at Union is to serve the church. Union Mission supports church planting and revitalisation across the UK, Europe and worldwide by raising up, deploying and financially supporting church planters.

We are committed not only to raising up leaders, but supporting and resourcing them as they go on to plant churches across the world. After completing their theological training, students have access to funding for church planting through Union Mission, and every year we are supporting more projects pioneered by Union students and graduates.
