CARMEL CAMPUSES
Establishing satellite centres around the Greater Bristol area is a key part of the vision of carmel: ministries international (c:mi). These outreach campuses will be within easy reach of carmel: christian centre and make it possible for people in the region to study the Word of God, grow in their gifting and develop leadership skills to effect revival in and around Bristol.
VISION FOR CARMEL: OUTREACH CAMPUSES
We view Bristol as a City of Faith, both because of its Christian legacy established by great men of faith such as John Wesley and George Müller, and because it is an important part of the vision of c:mi.
The outreach campuses therefore are designed to make an impact in the community, spiritually, relationally, socially and economically.
They are to be a blessing in the local community and help people find answers to the problems and circumstances that oppress them.
The spread of the gospel from each campus will become more concentrated and each of them will be able to support people and help them develop their potential once they have received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. From these centres we expect to see the fires of revival fanned into life as more and more people fulfil the purpose God has planned for them.
Each campus and community of Christians will need the means to fulfil God’s commission where they are. To this end c:mi has established a strategy so that each campus can tap into the resources available at carmel: christian centre. As an increasing number of people become involved with the campus in their area, they will be encouraged and supported as they establish God’s kingdom in their community to the point where they can become largely self-supporting.
Though each campus will take on its own character as it reflects its particular community, the link to carmel: christian centre will remain, providing ongoing support. Each campus will reflect and represent a growing family where individual growth and development is expected while maintaining the bonds of love, wisdom and encouragement.
