Christian charity Church Mission Society is launching a new grassroots campaign to raise awareness about missions in Asia.
The Prayer and Aware campaign features a series of events throughout the UK designed to inspire, inform and equip Christians with a concern for Asia.
It aims to get Christians involved with missions in Asia as well as Asian churches within the UK.
Speakers include Philip Mounstephen, Executive Leader of CMS, Bishop Michael Nazir Ali, the former Bishop of Rochester, and Professor Dr Harold Suermann, Director of the Institute of Missiology Missio, Aachen.
Philip Mounstephen, said, "Asia has 60 per cent of the world's population and is the largest ethnic minority group in the UK, but how much do we know of what God is doing in Asia and what contributions can UK based Asian communities make?
"The purpose of the Prayer & Aware campaign is to answer these critical questions".
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
