Who Are We?
The Christian and Missionary Alliance is an alliance of Christians who
desire to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with a world desperately
in need of Good News. Joined together by nearly 20,000 local churches in
more than 80 nations of the world, we are committed to fulfilling the
Great Commission given by our Lord Jesus Christ: “Go and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son
and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have
commanded you” (Matthew 28:19-20).
We are Christian because we believe and follow Jesus Christ as
Savior and Lord. We are missionary because we are committed to
reaching people at home and around the world who have yet to hear the
Good News of Jesus Christ.
The
Christian and Missionary Alliance traces its roots to the ministry and
vision of Dr. Albert B. Simpson, a Presbyterian pastor. Motivated by the
spiritual needs of the metropolitan multitudes in North America, in 1887
Dr. Simpson launched a vibrant ministry of sharing the Good News of
God's love and teaching the Word of God. He was joined by people from
varied denominational backgrounds who also desired to share this Good
News around the world. They were compelled by a sense of urgency to take
this message to all nations because of the declaration of Jesus that
“the Good News about the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world,
so that all nations will hear it, and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14).
The Danville Alliance Church, a congregation of The Christian and
Missionary Alliance, has been part of the local community since 1923. It
is our desire as a church to be a community of Christians where others
can come and receive...
...solid, no-nonsense, Bible-focused preaching and teaching.
...an atmosphere in which each individual can grow to their full
spiritual potential.
...meaningful interaction and cooperation with followers of Jesus Christ
who seek to show genuine compassion and love, offering caring
relationships and opportunity to serve God and others.
