In April, 1963, a group of twelve people gathered to study the Bible together. Just one year later, in May of 1964, they had officially organized themselves as a church with the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). In this way, Word of Life Church was "born". We are thankful that God has placed us here and we pray that He will continue to use us to share the good news of His Son, and reach out in meaningful ways to the community around us.
The C&MA as an organization began in the late 1800's, with the primary goal of bringing the Gospel to the nations. To learn more about the C&MA's core beliefs and values, structure, leadership, and associated organizations, as well as its work around the world, please click the link below. |
