Eleven years ago this week, I joined Christ For the City International as a consultant. I'm still here - now as a "regular" part-time employee. I'm amazed at what God has done through CFCI during the past 11 years. Jill Adams, CFCI communication director
CFCI has:
- grown from a handful of staff members to a dozen
- doubled the number of countries we're in from 8 to 16
- more than doubled the number of short-term teams we send out each year from 18 to 42
- increased the number of short-term individuals serving in a year from 8 to 70
- started the Urban Plunge which now has had 245 churches and 4,500 individuals plunging into inner-city ministry
- celebrated its 15 year anniversary
- embraced the internet as a communication and recruitment tool (website, blog, facebook, etc.)
- hosted five comedy shows to benefit CFCI ministries
- experienced two major computer crashes and survived
- enjoyed nine interns who worked for the love of Christ...not for the money
- celebrated numerous birthdays, anniversaries, and new babies
- grieved the retirement of Leah Huffman from full-time ministry
- and much, much more.
I wonder what the next 11 years will bring for CFCI? Want to be a part of it? Visit us at www.cfci.org!
