If you have never before heard of the Christian & Missionary Alliance (C&MA) denomination, the “Alliance” may sound a bit odd. Our denomination is made up of thousands of churches from all around the world that exist to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. While a large number of churches do exist in the US, there are actually more that exist outside of the US. The Christian & Missionary Alliance denomination has a very strong emphasis on missions and proclaiming Christ to the nations.
