The C&MA entered Bosnia Herzegovina in 1998. This was seven years after the country established its sovereignty in 1991, and shortly thereafter declared its independence from the former Yugoslavia.

Today, Alliance ministry efforts center in Sarajevo where our team is working to develop a community center in conjunction with two evangelical churches.

Pray.

The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.

Give.

You can help build Christ’s Church around the world by donating online to the Great Commission Fund. This fund finances our missionaries, allowing them to focus on ministry rather than raising their own support.

Serve.

Is God calling you to full-time service? Do you want to experience missions firsthand by participating in a short-term missions trip? We want to help you connect your passion with God’s purpose.
