About United World Ministries

United World Ministries, established in 2007 was formerly the missions arm of Logan City Christian Church. The church, was pioneered on the 28th March 1999 by founding Pastors Robert and Chantal Urban. Exponential growth of the missions arm of Logan City Christian Church required us to register the missions ministry as a stand-alone world missions entity. On the 2nd of December 2011 United World Ministries was registered as a not-for-profit public company limited by guarantee.

Our Mission

The need for ministers and ministries around the world to experience love, care, acceptance and a sense of belonging remains paramount. Our aim is for ministers of the gospel to connect and interact within the body of Christ locally, nationally and internationally.

U.W.M. is a Christian organisation offering a spiritual covering and support to Christian churches, Christian ministries and ministers. Through affiliation, our vision is for ministers and ministries to connect and network through a relationally based global fraternity. The process of ministerial ordination is simply identifying the validity of a divine call, verifying and endorsing it. All ministers and ministries ordained through U.W.M. are recognised at an international level.
