"We are at the very heart of where all the students live, study and party."

Manchester has a large and influential population of students. At CCM we want students to feel they can quickly get involved in who we are as a church and help us to grow and improve as a community.

From September 5th 2010 we will be running a meeting (CCM:City) at Luther King House in Fallowfield. This is a 10 minute walk from Owens Park Halls (massive student halls) and is just off Oxford Road, south of the curry mile. It is easily accessable from the Universities, the city centre and the south of Manchester because it is on a very busy bus route. This venue is at the very heart of where all the students live, study and party.

Until June 2010 we met in a vodka bar in Fallowfield but we outgrew that facility so are moving up the road in anticipation of further growth. The meeting will start at 6pm on a Sunday evening and we fully intend to have passionate and authentic worship, as well as relevant and challenging Bible teaching. We also run mid week community groups where we hang out, consume cake, disciple each other and probably eat some more cake.

We also have something called The Chapel. The Chapel is very much a work in progress and currently is a creative community made up of musicians, artists, bloggers, tweeters, consumers, creators and anybody who loves culture. Manchester is an incredibly creative and entrepreneurial city so we want to reach out into these communities by creating, supporting and outputting culture.

So far we have run club nights and open mic evenings. Our intention is too broaden this out to a wide range of culture activities depending on the creative talent that we have available to us.

So if you are student in Manchester or if you are soon moving to this incredible city then please contact Tim Simmonds on 07961 233 768, .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or find me on twitter or facebook.
