MISSION
- you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. -
CCM Canada has set up CCM Centres in Greater Vancouver (Burnaby and Richmond), Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto and Montreal. Our goal is to serve our local communities and Christians, and proclaim the Gospel of Christ through holistic care. Our mission is: “Bring the church to the people, and then bring the people back to the church.” Through the services of the centres, we put the Gospel of Christ into actions. We provide various services for children, youth, adults, seniors and immigrants, regardless of their gender and language. These services focus in education, community care, recreation and spiritual growth, with slight differences among the centres depending on the needs of their local communities.

At this location, which is easily accessible by public transportation, we have a counseling centre, book room, youth centre, art gallery, and multipurpose areas for hosting worship services, various programs for all ages, community and cultural activities, and even multimedia events.
