MEDIAlliance International launches three global offices

 

MEDIAlliance International announces the expansion of its global outreach with the opening of three regional offices. MEDIAlliance, led by founder and president Dr. Ron Harris, announces the opening of MEDIAlliance-Asia, MEDIAlliance-Europe, and MEDIAlliance-Brazil. 

In making these expansion moves, Dr. Harris says, “These offices will help focus our Christian media training and expand the building up of media leaders in three key geographic areas.” MEDIAlliance is working through ministry partners they have served for many years to grow the impact of the Gospel through today’s powerful media tools. 

MEDIAlliance International also launched a two-year $1 million campaign to further extend the Gospel through their current and new media partners worldwide. Most of the ministries served by MEDIAlliance International are in countries where the evangelical population is below two percent of the total in that land. “Today’s wide variety of media tools help make the gospel of Christ accessible to those who don’t know Jesus. Many have never heard of God’s great love,” says Dr. Harris. “Forty-two percent of the world are unreached. That’s 3.4 billion people in need of the hope and truth found only in Jesus.”

MEDIAlliance-Asia is located in Bangkok, Thailand, and will serve countries such as Indonesia, South Korea, India, and Thailand. The desire is to build a growing network of Christians using media and provide ways to both encourage and strengthen the work. The coordinator for MEDIAlliance-Asia is Nickie Dussadee. She had a key role in the very successful MEDIAlliance training conference in 2019 when over 400 attended the three-day television and social media training. Nickie, a part of the Nexus Christian Fellowship team, will help coordinate media leadership meetings and future regional training conferences.

MEDIAlliance-Europe is based in Timisoara, Romania, and will serve Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and the northern reaches of the continent. Serving to coordinate this work is Cristina Olariu. She has been a part of the media training conferences held in that region for over ten years. In addition, Cristina leads RVE-Timisoara, a radio ministry of Radio Voice of the Gospel. MEDIAlliance has strong relationships with media ministries in Eastern Europe, from Bulgaria to Ukraine, and countries like Finland, Norway, and Sweden. The ministry also serves Christian media leaders in France, Italy, Austria, and other countries in Central Europe.

MEDIAlliance-Brazil is based in Recife in the northeast of this key South American country. Brazil is the largest country in South America, the fifth largest in the world by size, and the sixth largest by population. The Brazilian language is Portuguese, which separates them from the rest of South American countries which largely speak Spanish. Fernando Câmara serves to coordinate the MEDIAlliance work for Brazil. Fernando organized the recent and highly successful MEDIAlliance media conference in Recife, the first of its kind. Discussions are underway for a conference in San Palau and other parts of Brazil

“There is a greater need now for the Gospel more than ever before,” says Dr. Harris. “And today’s media tools are a powerful way to share the story of God’s great love to our lost world. These new offices with help us give renewed focus and greater help in sharing God’s hope to all.”

MEDIAlliance International is starting its tenth year of training, mentoring, and encouraging those in Christian media around the world. Dr. Ron Harris (rharris@medialliance.cc) is the president and founder. Kyle Gilbert (kgilbert@medialliance.cc) is the Vice-President of Communications. It is a 501 c 3 organization with its main offices in Arlington, Texas.
