Grace Baptist Mission

Grace Baptist Mission is church-based, helping Grace Baptist churches to support and care for their missionaries through local churches in Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia. Their English and French Bible-teaching radio programmes are broadcast worldwide. The literature ministry of Grace Baptist Mission supplies local churches in the developing world. GBM missionaries plant new churches and help national Christians plant and grow indigenous churches. GBM evangelism includes Amazon river peoples, Austria's deaf, Manila's homeless and Asian women in Britain. Where GBM is involved in compassion ministries, the purpose is to bring the gospel which can change every aspect of life. GBM helps train leaders in formal theological seminaries and in local-church courses.

Good News For Everyone

Good News For Everyone (formerly GideonsUK) is a non-denominational association. They distribute Bibles without charge, in hotels, hospitals, prisons, schools, colleges and universities, care homes and medical centres, and to the police, armed forces, ambulance and fire services.

As they give people their own personal copy of God’s Word, Good News For Everyone also encourages individuals to meet God for themselves through the words of Scripture.
