Overview

Mission

What is the Unitarian Christian Alliance? Founded in 2019 the UCA is a network of individuals churches parachurch ministries and Christian denominations each committed to the truth of the One God. While holding to various beliefs in other areas UCA members all agree that the God of the Bible is the Father alone and that Jesus is his human Messiah. The mission of the UCA and its growing membership is two-fold: to promote unitarian theology and to connect like-minded believers across the globe.

What it reported doing in 2025

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
