Mission Partners
At Inspire, we recognise that we are part of God's global mission. In recognition of this, we support various organisations and individuals who are working on gospel projects which align with our church's vision. Each year, a portion of our overall church budget is assigned to the mission fund and the committee (currently Ann, Jonathan and Jill) consider applications from existing partners and new applicants to apportion funding to their projects. To find out more about how to become a mission partner, how to support our existing partners or our process, email admin@inspirelondon.org and your message will be passed on to a member of the mission committee.
