Involve Your Church
There are many ways in which your church could get involved with the work of CCM. You can choose how involved your church is, whether that is financially, practically or prayerfully.
Any help and support you can give the Charity will be gratefully received by all whose lives we touch. |
Join The Partnership 200 Scheme
The original P200 plan was to get 200 people and churches giving £10 a month to the work in Romania. This has now been expanded to include all the projects we support. Your church could give monthly, quarterly or annually and choose specifically where you would like your money to be used - the international projects (Romania, Thailand or India), the local projects or the everyday costs of the Charity.
Commit to Pray
We believe that money, time and prayer are equal forms of support (CCM Fundraising Policy 2008) and prayer often gets overlooked. There are lots of needs and if you would like some guidance, have a look at our Prayer Page or contact us to arrange for someone to come and visit you or help lead your Prayer Meeting.
Hold Your Own Fundraising Event
Holding a fundraising event in your Church achieves more than just finance for CCM. It helps your church members meet together in a social setting and really get to know each other in a relaxed environment. Please take the opportunity to hold such an event, it is a great way to get non-believers through your door to meet your church members and 'break the ice.' Have a look at our Fundraising Page for some suggestions.
Support CCM's Fundraising Events
The Walk2Romania is CCM's major fundraising event of the year and we are always looking for more walkers. If Arley Hall is easily accessible to you, then come and join with all the other walkers and enjoy a great day out. If you live too far away, get together with some other churches in your own area and plan your own 5 mile route. We can help you with banners, sponsor forms, posters, leaflets, press releases, t-shirts and anything else you might need. Visit the Walk2Romania site for more information.
Invite a Representative
Why not invite one of the team to come and introduce the work of CCM to your church or group. We have spoken at Mens' Breakfasts and Mens' Curry Nights, Ladies afternoon meetings and prayer groups. Whether it is mid-week or Sunday morning, we would love to come and share the work of CCM with you.
Support Our Appeals
Our Harvest Appeal has been running for a number of years and has been well supported. Our request is for tinned goods, pasta, flour, sugar, toiletries and cleaning products. These items are shipped out to Romania where they are distributed by Gabi Coasa (CCM Cluj President) to needy families in the outlying villages.
The Christmas Appeal is to pack a shoebox with love. Take one empty shoebox, choose some little gifts and pack them all in the box with your love. We will ensure that you box makes its way to a child who would otherwise not have a gift at Christmas.
