Statement of Purpose

C
hrist Ministerial Fellowship, CMF, began in the mid-1980’s as an informal gathering of non-denominational church leaders - each desiring to press into the higher purposes of God but also realizing the necessity of a corporate body. From these initial gatherings grew a closely bonded brotherhood singular in vision - namely, there is a calling of God beyond the new birth and Pentecostal experiences, to that of spiritual maturity. CMF seeks no earthly recognition or advantage, only to be part of a company of believers that identifies with the heart of the Apostle Paul as he cried out: "Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 3:12-14
