The history of t he
Charis Alliance
Our church is part of a vibrant
global movement. Ever wonder
how it all began?
1.
This growing church drew the
ire of the local rulers. To avoid
persecution, they immigrated
to the Americas and, over time,
formed hundreds of churches.
4.
Yet something was missing.
Among the nal words of Jesus is
the command ‘to make disciples
of all nations.’ Obeying Jesus
means taking his message to
others by crossing barriers of
geography, language and culture.
5.
For us, this began in 1900. Slowly
at rst, then with more speed,
we sent workers to many
distant places. Before long,
these new churches were also
sending out workers.
6.
By the early 1700’s, churches
across Europe were embroiled
in conict. Many had lost sight
of the reason Jesus formed His
church – to deliver the message
of grace and hope.
2.
However, in one corner of
Germany, a small group of men
and women recommitted to
reading their Bibles and obeying
its message. In 1708, they took
the bold step of forming a new
church, based upon the example
they saw in the New Testament.
