What is Contemporary Christian Ministries?
Contemporary Christian Ministries (CCM) is an evangelistic
ministry of Community of Christ. Our style of worship is relaxed and informal,
full of joy and praise and spirit-filled. With the use of contemporary
Christian music, there is room for many different expressions of praising God.
There are people of all ages found in CCM ministries, but there seems to be a
particular appeal for young adults and those who are searching for a more
expressive, open style of worship.
CCM Mission Statement: To proclaim Jesus Christ and promote communities
of joy, hope, love, and peace and provide disciples committed to transforming
the world.
Vision Statement: To become a united, vibrant force of Holy Spirit-led
disciples, testifying of Jesus Christ's love.

Setting apart
prayer for Cindy Ford and the Contemporary Christian Ministry by
President W. Grant McMurray and Bill Howard

We feel a “call” to develop disciples of Jesus Christ who can take the
good news of the gospel to the “bruised and broken-hearted” and those who
are enmeshed in sin to offer the love, hope, peace and joy that can be found
only in Jesus Christ. We believe that lives can be transformed through the power
of the Holy Spirit and that we must equip ourselves through the spiritual
disciplines and by studying the Holy Scriptures.
We join with the World Church in “Proclaiming Jesus Christ and promoting
communities of joy, hope, love and peace.” We want to be instruments in
bringing about reconciliation and healing of the Spirit and believe strongly
that our discipleship includes the words that Jesus spoke in Luke 4:18
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach
the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach
deliverance to the captives, and the recovering of sight to the blind; to set
at liberty them that are bruised.”
