Before He left this earth and ascended to heaven, Jesus Christ instructed His followers to make disciples of all nations:
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching
them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matt 28:19-20)
International Baptist Church (IBC) supports numerous missionaries, both within the UK and abroad. Approximately 65% of IBC’s missions
giving goes to support missionaries who are working in the “10/40 Window.” The 10/40 Window describes that area of the world with latitudes between 10 and 40 degrees north of the equator covering North Africa, the
Middle East and Asia. People living in this region have some of the greatest physical and spiritual needs of anyone in the world. Most of the people in this area of the world have never heard (not even once!) the
good news that God loves them and sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on a cross for their sins. Most governments in the 10/40 Window are hostile to the advance of Christianity in their countries.
An IBC Missions committee meets regularly to consider and pray about support of new missionaries as well as review support levels of
existing missionaries. Our “Adopt-A-Missionary” program assigns individuals to contact missionaries we support in order that we might know them better and pray for them more effectively.
