Impacting Communities

Our One Priority

Our One Priority To start and strengthen congregations to serve as vital and vibrant missional communities.

Or in More Detail . . . To start and strength congregational expressions in a manner that empowers them to serve as vital and vibrant missional communities who reach and nurture the lost, unchurched, underchurched, and dechurched people who live or visit in our associational fellowship area, or who live wherever in God’s world our congregations are sent and received.

Impacting Communities

Impacting Communities focuses on engaging various geographic communities and identified target groups of people in the context where they live, work, and play. It includes special events (State Fair, etc.) and ongoing ministries of contextual engagement (Decker International Corridor, etc.). This strategy is led by a Community Impact Leadership Community composed of pastors, staff members, and lay leaders from member congregations and other congregations with whom CMBA cultivates a network relationship.
