The Mission Society is now TMS Global, a pivot aimed both at fitting the organization’s desire to work into least-reached areas of the world and protecting its missionaries while doing so. The Rev. Max Wilkins, president and CEO, explained that the Norcross, Ga., organization was originally named The Mission Society for United Methodists before becoming interdenominational. The organization didn’t have a strong connection with the shortened name and would even receive donations intended for a similarly named group.
