‘Unique’ is probably the best word to describe the Bangor Worldwide Missionary Convention. As far as is known, there is no other Convention quite like it in the United Kingdom.

Worldwide 2011 was the 75th annual Bangor Worldwide Missionary Convention. We’re still finalising details for our 2012 so keep checking back. 2012 dates will be 24th August – 1st September

Founded in 1937 by Mr Herbert J. Mateer, the Convention has continued without a break as an annual event ever since. In 2010, in it’s 74th year, the original purpose of the Convention is as valid today as it was when it first began – to promote and support world mission.

With meetings held over eight days, it is an event of considerable significance in the missionary life of Northern Ireland.
