ALARM exists to empower the African church to impact the African continent by developing and equipping leaders with skills and tools to nurture and deepen the Christian faith for the transformation and reconciliation of the African communities. ALARM was founded in 1994 in response to a crisis of Christian leadership in Africa following the genocide in Rwanda.
Musekura is the president and founder of ALARM. He is an ordained Baptist minister and published author who was born and raised in Rwanda. Wheeler is the international director of ALARM.
