WEC International is a Mission Agency founded in 1913 by Charles Studd. At first is was known as the Heart of Africa Mission and later became known as the Worldwide Evangelisation Crusade. Later, recognising the insensitivity of using the word "crusade", the mission was re-named as WEC International.

[edit] WEC today

WEC International now has 1,719 active workers from 49 nations working in multicultural teams all over the world. The mission currently has an emphasis on making it possible for every group of Indigenous Peoples to hear the Christian Gospel through planting churches among those with little or no opportunity to hear about Jesus.

[edit] Church Planting

Why plant churches?

Because we believe God wants there to be local churches among unreached peoples. A local church is God's community in which people find ultimate fulfilment and spiritual destiny. It's the community through which he reveals himself to the world.
