We will be a United Church for a Divided World
We will continue to unite different people in the name of Jesus.
In January of 2020, First Alliance Church and Harvest Time Community Church joined together as one. Pastor Mike Mercurio and Pastor Allen Grimes combined their leadership skills to form a team and to invite others to join the effort. In a world that is very much divided, we strive to be a church united.

We will reach out to the nations, both far away and close to home.
Our commitment to world missions supports the Alliance's effort of sending out missionaries to every part of the planet. We also recognize that people from around the world have come to live in our backyard. So we are pleased to say that members of our church family come from many wonderful and interesting places: Afghanistan, Brazil, Botswana, Cameroon, Colombia, Cote’ D’ Ivoire, Dominican Republic., El Salvador, Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Italy, Jamaica, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, Peru, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Sierra Leone, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Uganda, and Vietnam.
We will practice for heaven while living on earth.
We will become practitioners of "Revelation 7 multicultural worship." This is what we see in God's preview of his church, gathered together in heaven, "I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb."
We will continue to share our building in strategic Kingdom Partnerships.
In addition to the English ministry of First Alliance Church, we support ministries in Amharic (Addis Kidan Christ's Church), Creole (Bread of Life Bible Fellowship), Oromo (Sons of God Fellowship), Portuguese (Igreja Shalom), Spanish (Christian Fellowship) and Vietnamese (Hội Thánh Tin Lành). We sometimes call this larger gathering, "The Alliance Community," as we have formed an alliance to do God's work here on earth.
