At Bunyan we have a long-standing tradition of sending and supporting those who have followed the call into overseas mission, as part of fulfilling the Great Commission of taking the Gospel to all nations. 

In this we are guided and encouraged by the work of our Overseas Mission Committee (OMC), who work in conjunction with the Church leadership. The OMC seeks to promote mission within Bunyan and to support current and returning missionaries in a variety of ways, as well as those who are in the process of discerning God's call. As a Church, we also actively support BMS World Mission. In addition, on the second Sunday of every month, Bunyan holds a Fairtrade stall, whose profits go to support projects overseas.
