The United Missionary Church of Africa was incorporated in Nigeria in 1956. In 1978 the United Missionary Society turned over to the UMCA the work and property which it had begun and developed. Many missionaries stayed in Nigeria after the turnover working under the UMCA. These missionaries soon organized first as The Fellowship of Invited Missionaries and then as World Partners Nigeria.

A., They include minutes of board meetings, documents related to the quota system for registering expatriates ministering in the country and to the educational and medical systems developed.

When the Missionary Church of Canada first came into existence in 1979, Rev. Alf Rees pushed to have a gathering of Missionary Church Presidents from around the world. The First International Missionary Church Conference was held in Jamaica Feb. 22 to March 1, 1979. (Emphasis, April 15, 1979, p. 12-13). The second international conference of Missionary Church National Presidents was held Sept. 8-11, 1986 in the Dominican Republic (Emphasis, Nov., 1986, p. 12). There was later a lull in its activity but it was revived again in about the year 2000 and its name changed to World Partners International.
