The Alliance (C&MA) exists for more than 125 years. The movement spread around the globe, but was born in Canada and the USA. Here is an impression of the situation today in those two countries.

 
CANADA: There are now 434 Alliance churches in Canada. They are organized into six districts with a total inclusive membership of 130,000 people. The districts are actively involved in a variety of church planting efforts. Of the 434 congregations, thirty percent worship in a language other than Canada’s two official languages of English and French. 254 Canadian International Workers are deployed to impact least-reached people groups, with well over 100 least-reached people groups being impacted globally in 42 nations of the world.

USA: There are 2,037 Alliance churches in the United States, of which nearly 40 percent are non- Anglo. More than 45 percent of the total membership in the United States represents non-Anglo ethnicities. They worship in more than 36 languages. There are 102 new church-planting projects in progress. A special thrust has been made to stimulate church-planting efforts among Hispanic populations. An association of Arabic-Speaking Alliance Churches was organized in 2013 to advance ministry among the increasing number of Arabic-speaking people in the United States.
It remains the vision of the Alliance in the U.S. to focus its resources on the least-reached areas of the world. There are  nearly 700 workers around the world. 35 New workers were appointed in 2013.
