Alton Garrison serves as Executive Director of the Assemblies of God U.S. Missions. Garrison brings several years of experience to this ministry. After serving as a member on the U.S. Missions board since last year, he is keenly aware of challenges faced by the missionaries and chaplains.

An executive presbyter for the last four years, Garrison has served as superintendent of the Arkansas District since 2001. He was pastor of First Assembly of God in Little Rock, Arkansas for 15 years. From 1966 to 1985, Garrison was as an evangelist. He serves as director on multiple ministry boards.

Garrison's ministry emphasizes three distinct and important areas: evangelism, equipping and encouraging. As a pastor at First AG, he spearheaded extensive lay ministry involvement, which led the church in 1996 to give $1.4 million to missions.

Garrison and his wife, Johanna, have one daughter, Lizette. He authored the book Building a Winning Team. Mrs. Garrison has published a book entitled Tangled Destinies.

"Until everybody has had an adequate witness of the saving power of Jesus Christ, until we have confronted everyone in the United States with a chance to get saved and as long as people are just growing churches through biological and transfer growth, we still have a task to do.” --Alton Garrison
