About Us

Who We Are

Asia Collaborative Mission Services (AsiaCMS) is a trans-denominational mission movement based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, established in 2012 as part of the wider CMS global family. While AsiaCMS is rooted in the long mission legacy of the Church Mission Society, Britain, and seeks to draw on the experience and wisdom of the global CMS community, we continue to evolve and develop an authentic Asian mission movement as we follow God’s leading and respond to the needs within the Asian context. 

We believe it is no longer “business as usual” for churches, Christian organisations, and Christians engaged in God’s mission. In a rapidly changing world. AsiaCMS seeks to help the church engage mission in ways that are biblically faithful, contextually relevant, and grounded in cooperation across cultures, churches, and organisations.

Our tagline, Together on the Edge in God’s Mission,” expresses this conviction. 

It reflects our desire to work collaboratively, drawing on the diverse strengths and resources of God’s people to meet current mission challenges with fresh insight and renewed commitment. AsiaCMS seeks to multiply the mission efforts of churches and Christian organisations in a 3-fold focus:

  •     Embody the Gospel in Asian communities that are yet to experience its fullness
  •     Engage in spheres of mission that are critical but often overlooked in Asia
  •     Enable Asian-led insights and collaborative responses to mission challenges

To accomplish these, AsiaCMS will:

  •     Connect people, organisations, and churches to meet real needs;
  •     Collaborate to advance mission initiatives with shared purpose;
  •     Catalyse growth by equipping people and organisations through mission education, cross-cultural ministry training, and ongoing support.

Connect people, organisations, and churches to meet needs;

Facilitate collaborations for mission initiatives;

Resource people and organisations through mission education, cross-cultural ministry training and support.
