OUR MISSION
Why Europe?
Europe is one of the most influential yet spiritually overlooked mission fields in the world. Although it has a rich Christian history, many countries today are marked by a post-Christian culture where atheism, agnosticism, and spiritual indifference are widespread. As a result, millions of people have little meaningful connection to a local church or to the message of the gospel.
In many European countries, weekly church attendance has fallen to single-digit percentages. Millions of people may know Christianity as part of their culture, yet have never encountered the gospel in a personal, life-changing way.
That is why Europe still matters so deeply. It is a place of great spiritual need and great opportunity — where strong churches, faithful leaders, and long-term gospel partnership can make a lasting impact for generations to come.
OUR FOCUS
At EMS, we are committed to strengthening churches across Europe and contending for lasting spiritual renewal. Through faithful partnership, we help build the kind of healthy, enduring churches that can bring the hope of the gospel to their communities for years to come.
Strengthen Church Leaders
We work alongside church leaders to provide encouragement, practical support, and ongoing development so they can lead healthy, effective churches with wisdom, faith, and endurance.
Train Missionaries
We equip missionaries with the focus on long-term impact—preparing individuals to plant, lead, and sustain meaningful ministry.
Raise Up the Next Generation
Through the European School of Missions, we invest in discipleship, leadership development, and hands-on ministry experience to help equip young European leaders for the future of the church.
Develop Self-Supporting Churches
Our goal is to see churches grow into sustainable, self-supporting communities. We work with local ministries to build strong foundations so they can thrive independently and continue reaching others long-term.
YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
Europe needs faithful partners. When you give to EMS, you help strengthen church leaders, equip missionaries, raise up new generations of disciples, and support churches as they grow into healthy, sustainable communities. Your generosity has lasting impact. It helps build the church, expand the reach of the gospel, and bring hope to people and communities across Europe.
