A Message from our Director

Thank you for visiting our website!

I surrendered to the call of the ministry in 1967. I remember that warm August afternoon as though it were yesterday. While having afternoon devotions and prayer time I sensed a certain presence of the Lord in my room. It was then that I knew my life belonged to HIM and he would send me to various places proclaiming the gospel in preaching, teaching and music.

Since then I have preached in many places and I continue to meet those who feel a sense of calling. I like to encourage people to explore their life and see to what ministry Christ is calling them. I have felt it important to not only encourage people to explore their gifts and graces but to also offer a way to educate and credential people for their calling. This is where the World Missionary Church Alliance comes in.

We will explore your calling with you and help with direction. Whether your calling is that of a pastor, evangelist, missionary, or lay worker, WMCA stands ready to help you fulfill the calling and vision of Jesus Christ in your life.

For a mere sum of a $50 annual fee, the WMCA will grant, upon approval, credentials appropriate for your calling. Send your resume, references, and $50 today.

Send your resume to: World Missionary Church Alliance, 211 N Broadway St., Greensburg, IN 47240

WMCA Statement of Faith

1. We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons. Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
2. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in his miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and visible return in power and glory.
4. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that, because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation.
5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by whom the Church is empowered to carry out Christ's great commission.
6. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
7. We believe that marriage is, intended by God, to be between a man and a woman.
