USPG
- United Society for the Propagation of the Gospel
is an Anglican Missionary Organisation that ‘enables
people to grow spiritually, to thrive physically
and to have a voice in an unjust world.’ They
do this alongside churches and communities around
the world, providing the resources - people, money
and ideas - that they define as necessary to meet
local needs. Their work involves pastoral care,
social action and supporting training programmes.
It was founded on 16 June 1701. www.uspg.org.uk
