Jesus commissioned His followers to go and make disciples of all
nations (Matthew 28:29) Our driving passion—why we exist—is to know
Christ and complete His great commission. This compels us to reach our
own communities with the good news of Jesus.
For The
Alliance, it doesn't stop in our own cities. With ministries in
seventy-five countries, reaching the lost is a cause for which we are
willing to go (quite literally) to the ends of the earth.
We
do four Missions Weekend Events throughout the year called Global
Impact I, II, III, & IV, which celebrate and promote missions
within our church.
If you haven't seen it yet, we still have a video of the children at
the Compassion School at Pissy, Burkina Faso, from out last missions
trip. Check out the video!

Missionaries who serve under the Christian and Missionary Alliance
are not required to raise their own support. Our churches throughout
the United States contribute to the Great Commission Fund which covers
their expenses, including medical and retirement. By giving to the
Great Commission Fund, you help support a team of more than eight
hundred dedicated missionaries sent out by our Alliance Churches in the
United States.
The Great Commission Fund:
- Provides
health care in places like Gabon where the Bongolo Evangelical Hospital
treats more than 30,000 patients annually, and where hundreds receive
Christ as their Savior.
- Partners in reaching Muslims, Buddhists, animists, and Hindus for Christ.
- Trains future church leaders worldwide.
- Gives food, provisions, and hope to victims of war, famine, and natural disasters.
- Supplies grants for new churches being launched within the United States.
- Brings the message of Jesus to unreached people groups.

CAMA Services (Compassion And Mercy Associates) |

CAMA Services began as an outreach to refugees fleeing the horrors of the Indochina conflict in 1972. Through camps in Thailand serving Vietnamese, Laotian, and Cambodian refugees, CAMA staff provided food, clothing, medical care, job training, and a verbal witness to the truth that God's Son died and rose again.
The lessons learned in Indochina were soon applied among refugees in Hong Kong, Lebanon, Jordan, and Guinea and famine victims in Burkina Faso and Mali. Development projects were started to empower the poor to live in hope.
CAMA Services now has projects in more than fifteen countries across the world, including famine relief in Mali, AIDS awareness compaigns in Burkina Faso, well-drilling in Vietnam, and a potato co-op in Mongolia.
