What is NZCMS?

NZCMS stands for the New Zealand Church Missionary Society. We’re an evangelical, voluntary mission organisation seeking to mobilise the Anglican Church in New Zealand for God’s mission.

We’ve been around for over 100 years, since 1892 to be exact, so we have heaps of experience in preparing, sending and practically supporting Kiwis to do all kinds of cross-cultural ministry and live a missional lifestyle. We have a global network of partnerships we love to utilise to help build God’s Kingdom. Join us on our mission to impact the nations for Christ.
