In August 1992, members of various area congregations began meeting at a local church in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, to seek God’s will for their city.
Two years later, in June 1994, a homeless man came to the event and asked for food. His request was met, more homeless people started coming for the same reason, a great need was recognized, and the challenge was accepted.
The effort was named Inner City Ministry. It soon outgrew the gymnasium that was originally offered, and on May 18, 1997 Inner City Ministry became Christ Central Ministries
God has ordained and gifted people to have a heart of compassion to recognize need. Our mission is to find those people, train them, then support them in an effort to meet the need that is in their heart to accomplish.
