Christian Growth Ministries Inc (CGM) is an interdenominational and non-profit organisation. Our mission is to contribute to the life and growth of God’s people and to the church at large, wherever possible and with whatever means are at our disposal.
WHAT WE DO
Our focus is on equipping, training and encouragement. We believe that God is committed to His church. We therefore believe in the future of the church and are committed to contribute to its health and growth.
Our emphasis is on the necessity for understanding Bible principles for life and growth, both within the individual Christian and the local church. We believe that all aspects of Christian living, church life and evangelism are a consequence of understanding and appropriating the clear principles of Scripture.
We mentor and encourage the growth of vibrant, well-equipped leaders, who will in turn equip others through discipling and mentoring, as modelled by the Apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 2.
