The United Evangelical Mission (UEM) is a missionary communion of churches in three continents, which currently consists of 34 member churches in Africa, Asia, and Europe (Germany). Its objective is the communion in mission, and mutual assistance in missionary tasks. The UEM constitution states that the United Evangelical Mission - Communion of Churches in Three Continents - shall operate within a network of churches in Africa, Asia, and Europe, and wherever it is called to be. Together they shall proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour of all people, and shall meet the present-day missionary challenges. In a world torn apart, they commit themselves to remain members of the one body of Christ, and therefore:
• grow together into a worshipping, learning and serving community;
• share gifts, insights, and responsibilities;
• call all people to repentance and new life;
• bear witness of the kingdom of God in striving for justice, peace and the integrity of creation.
The United Evangelical Mission is the successor to the Vereinigte Evangelische Mission which, as a German missionary organization, was itself established in 1971 through a fusion of the Rhenish Mission (founded in 1828) and the Bethel Mission (1886), and in 1979 the Zaire Mission. The transformation of the German missionary body into an international missionary communion of churches was launched in 1996, as a result of the first general assembly of the UEM, in Bethel, Germany. In the international missionary communion, all member churches support each other through the exchange of experience, staff and financial assistance. Particular focal points are the fields of church social service and education. German staff work as ministers, theological lecturers, deacons, physicians, nurses, agricultural and building engineers and administrators in Africa and Asia. In return, African and Asian parish workers and theologians work in German parishes, UEM, and regional services.
Bread for the World is a collective Christian voice urging our nation’s decision makers to end hunger at home and abroad.

Our constituents have lobbied for emergency food reserves for famine relief, and Bread was among the organizations who led the Jubilee Debt Relief campaign which has resulted in millions more children attending school in Sub-Saharan Africa and critical resources being available for maternal and child health and HIV-AIDS treatment in countries that received debt relief.
The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria was created to dramatically increase resources to fight three of the world's most devastating diseases, and to direct those resources to areas of greatest need.
