Christ Community Ministries
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.” (Psalm 147:3-5)
Richard Samuel founded Christ Community Ministries (“CCM”) as the umbrella organization that oversees all the work he leads. The name Christ Community Ministries succinctly says it all. CCM seeks to create Christ-centered communities where the hope and love of Jesus brings healing and restoration to the lost and broken. In these communities physical needs are met, but also the deeper needs for emotional healing and spiritual deliverance are addressed. True freedom in Christ is the result for those who were previously in bondage.
Do you know where the emotional wounds that result in bondage happen to people? They happen in the fallen communities of this world through relationships. Do you know where these hurts are healed so that people can be set free? This happens in healing communities that the Lord creates through relationships. Healing does not take place in isolation; it only happens in relationships.
The CCM staff provides day to day administration of the various ministries. Additionally, CCM has a board of trustees in India which provides oversight to the ministries. Internal and external audits of accounts are conducted annually by certified auditors. The audits are then sent for approval to India’s Commisioner of Income Tax (“IT”) and Home Ministry Dehli.
