HISTORY & MISSION STATEMENT

STATEMENT OF FAITH
Christian
Compassion Center is a non-denominational Word of Faith Christian Fellowship
and Evangelistic Outreach Ministry.
We
Believe that the BIBLE is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, written
WORD OF GOD.
We
believe that there is only one God, existent eternally in three persons
(the Triune God, and one in unity); God the Father, God the Son, and
God the Holy Ghost.
We
believe in the deity of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; His virgin
birth, His miracles, His atoning death and resurrection, His ascent
to the right hand of the Father and His imminent personal return
to
earth in power and glory to reign for a thousand years.
We
believe in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the work of
regeneration; His sanctifying power indwelling in the believer, and
the Baptism of the Holy Spirit to enable the Christian to live a holy
and victorious life.
We
believe that salvation comes through the personal repentance of sin
and the confession of faith in the precious shed blood and Lordship
of Jesus-Christ.

CORPORATE HISTORY
& MISSION STATEMENT
Christian
Compassion Center, Incorporated is a Non-Denominational, Evangelistic
Outreach Ministry and Church Fellowship. Christian Compassion Center
(C.C.C.) began as an organization in April of 1982. On January 3rd,
1983 it was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit corporation.
Although Christian Compassion Center is a religious corporation, it
specifically pursued an IRS 501(c)(3) ruling an order to provide a broader
base of service and thereby, at the same time make it possible for foundations
and secular "for profit" corporations to provide philanthropic support.
The
mission of Christian Compassion Center is to reach the un-churched,
feed the poor, help the homeless, the jailed and the imprisoned. Our
long range objective is to establish facilities to administer
basic needs to the aforementioned, providing such services as; temporary
housing, feeding, clothing, and teaching them workable skills that will
enable them to get a new start in life.
At
present, Christian Compassion Center is actively ministering in the
Jails and prisons. The Christian Compassion
Hour, a weekly television outreach program, is televised all over
the county of San Diego, on the local public access cable network. The
program teaches the un-compromised gospel of Jesus Christ and sound
Christian morals and principles.
We
also have a Food Bank Program where we
distribute food to homeless, unemployed people throughout the city.
We provide this service every two (2) weeks (every 2nd and 4th Friday
of each month) at no charge to the recipients. We purchase the food
from the local county "Food Bank" program, out of our own general fund.
We minister in several convalescent homes throughout the city and we
are currently preparing a hospital bedside ministry.
The founding fathers, Pastor Bonis E. Byrd, Jr. and wife, Mrs. Bonnie
L. Byrd were both Computer Scientist in the secular world. It has been
a longtime dream of theirs to establish a
"Computer Literacy" program within their ministry to give low-income
young adults and teenagers an opportunity to learn a skill that otherwise
would not be obtainable. This would give these young people an opportunity
to contribute in their society and provide for their households with
a better than minimum wage job with advancement opportunities.
The
Byrds’ likewise have been television broadcasters for over twelve
(12) years. They desire to implement a "Video
Technology" program. Once again targeting the teenagers and
young adults of low-income status within there community.
The
future goals of Christian Compassion Center is to establish two
(2) additional non-profit corporations; an Economic Development Corporation
and a Community Development Corporation. With these two additional
corporations, Christian Compassion Center and its future sister corporations
will be able to provide a complete and well rounded service program
to its community; spiritually, morally, mentally, economically and physically.
These types of services will promote the general welfare and promote
good health to each participant.
