Rev. Celso Massayuki Nakamae, elected president of the Christian and Missionary Alliance Church in Brazil, steps into leadership in a nation with deep spiritual roots, historic ministry presence, and growing evangelical influence.

Born into a family of missionaries that worked worldwide, Rev. Jeremy Warden now has more than 20 years of ministry experience. As president, Rev. Warden hopes to help guide the Brazilian Alliance in strengthening and renewing its relationship with God.

The pandemic initially presented a threatening challenge for the Latin American missionary movement. However, the God of mission guided the CLA to take actions. Despite churches closing, Latin missionaries remained in the field with their virtual and in-person ministries bringing help and hope to those most in need.

As part of our communication strategy, we are launching a new outreach campaign.
