The Great Commission is the command given by Christ to all His followers: “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).

Inspired by this command, Dr. Albert B. Simpson in the 1880’s desired to mobilize the under-utilized lay forces and resources of the churches to “take the whole Bible to the whole world.”

Beginning in 1884, the Christian and Missionary Alliance or C&MA gradually expanded from a five-member team in Congo to more than 1,100 missionaries in 49 nations and churches in 66 countries and territories. With emphasis on establishing churches among unreached people groups and responsive populations worldwide, the C&MA is involved also in many types of specialized missions such as communications, medical work, translation, and relief and development aid.

The Great Commission Fund enables the C&MA to build Christ’s Church around the world through missionary support and training for national pastors.
