Missions
CCF has planted churches since 1984 and now reaches beyond the Philippines. Centris is a sending center as much as a gathering one.
1984
CCF's first service, 400 people at the Asian Institute of Management in Makati.
2006
CCF Singapore became the first overseas church plant, and CCF Beyond was established.
40+
Nations where CCF Beyond has helped establish satellites and house churches.
Close to home
The barangays around Eton Centris are the first place Centris is meant to serve. Most of this work is unglamorous and repeated.
Regular meals for families in the barangays nearest the center, run with local barangay officials rather than around them.
Volunteer professionals running check-ups and basic treatment days, several times a year.
Games, teaching, and a meal for children who will never come to a Sunday service on their own.
Practical training for adults, because a meal helps for a day and a skill helps for longer.
The Philippines gets typhoons. The center's halls become staging space when they do.
Small gatherings meeting in homes across Quezon City, the model CCF has used since the beginning.
CCF Beyond
CCF Beyond began in 2006 as a response to the call for international expansion. Its premise is simple: millions of Filipinos work overseas, and each one is already where a missionary would have to be sent.
Since then CCF Beyond has helped create satellites and house churches in more than 40 nations. Someone discipled at Centris who takes a job abroad is not leaving the mission. They are joining a different part of it.
CCF worldwideTell the missions team before you leave. There may already be a CCF satellite or house church where you are going.
Centris members support missionaries and church planters financially and in prayer, by name rather than in the abstract.
Trips run through the year, usually a week, often building or teaching. No special skills required.
The model that built CCF. If you are somewhere without one, the missions team will train you.
Most people who end up on a mission field started by serving a Saturday outreach in their own city. It is the same work at a different distance.
