“Command those who are rich in this present world…to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share…so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.” I Timothy 6:17-19
Our Mission: We honor God by serving others. We share a responsibility to bring God's love to hurting people. We are a Christian Mission Outreach dedicated to showing people, through our actions and love, the life changing power of Jesus Christ.

If you are in the Riviera Maya and have clothing or commodity contributions for our children, please contact Cherilyn Martin. All items must be sorted and sized before delivery. Please strive to make sure all items offered are clean and serviceable. Please ask yourself this question: Would you allow your children to wear the clothes in public?

“Courage does not always roar. Sometimes it is a quiet voice at the end of the day, saying, "I will try again tomorrow." Mary Anne Radmacher
With the financial help of our church members and worldwide Christian Mission Partners, CCF Good Guys Henry, John and Gary along with New Guy Andy, were able to purchase and deliver a week’s supply of chicken, shrimp, pork, bacon, molida especial, salchicha Vienna, chorizo, sliced turkey, white cheese, bread, donuts, media crema, cheese whiz and a chocolate cake to our Christian home. Cancun Christian Fellowship purchases and delivers groceries to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza every week.
“Forgiveness is the most powerful thing you can do for yourself. If you can’t learn to forgive, you can forget about achieving true success in your life.” Dr. Dyer
CCF Good Guys have fun while honoring God by serving others. We get together every week to purchase and deliver food to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza. If you would like to fellowship with other Christian men and have a great time in the process, contact Tom at tommartinmx@gmail.com.
“Life at its essence boils down to one day at a time. Today is the day!” Jim Stovall
New Church Location: Effective February 3rd, 2013, Community of Faith Cancun is moving. Our new location is the La Quinta Hotel Centro, Avenida Tulum, SM 4 MZA 14 Lote 2 in downtown Cancun. We will be meeting in the Salon del Sol and the Children’s Bible Study will be held next door in the Salon del Mar. Our new location has plenty of Sunday morning free parking and is located on the R1 bus route (convenient to guests staying in the Hotel Zone). As always, services begin at 10:00 AM sharp.
“One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon--instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.” Dale Carnegie
Semi Annual Pizza Luncheon: Put February 10th on your calendar. Church members and Christian Mission Partners will be getting together at California Pizza Kitchen at 12:30 to dine and fellowship. The date marks the anniversary of the 3rd year of our new service and Christian Mission Outreach and we hope you join us. As always, children are welcome.
“There is enough time in every day to do God's work... in God's way.” Ted W. Engstrom
We received a call from Trish Gonzalez stating that she and the girls will be returning to our Cancun family in approximately two months. It was good hearing her voice and it will be great having them back.
“In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer
On a sad note, we have not received any further communication from the Spanish pastors we were talking with about merging their churches with our church, we can only assume they are no longer interested. We feel they could have benefited from our experience and we could have benefited from their mission outreach but things do not always work out.
“Dedication is doing the "BEST" with your life rather than settling for what is only the "good." unknown
Our pre-church entertainment will feature Flip Pallot fly fishing for Redfish in the Texas Laguna Madre. This is a great presentation with plenty of action. Remember there is an OXXO next door to the church if you desire coffee, soft drinks or snacks while watching the show.
“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” Anne Frank
The purpose of tithing, found in Deuteronomy 14:22-23 (NLT), is made clear: to “teach you always to love the Lord your God.” By practicing good tithing habits, scripture tells us we are showing God our desire to put him first in our lives.
“Remember this—you can’t serve God and Money, but you can serve God with money.” Selwyn Hughes
Laurie Lipp offers a Children’s Bible Study Class each Sunday for children ten and under. The class is held in the showroom at the front of Tokal Business Center. For additional details, please contact Laurie before or after the service. She will be excited to talk to you.
“As Christians we accept one foundational truth - God - and everything else makes sense. An atheist denies God and has to accept incredible explanations for everything else. It takes more faith to deny God than to believe in Him.” John MacArthur
We are currently seeking a Mission Partner to lead our Wednesday Men’s Group. If you have the desire, we have the need. Please contact Tom Martin at tommartinmx@gmail.com / 998-121-1316 for additional information.
“Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.” anonymous
