CMA serves many hundreds of members, welcomes over a thousand people to our training, professional development and networking sessions each year, and distributes mountains of publications and resources - all with less than 2.5 full-time-equivalent staff. This is partly because we're not underwritten by any other source, and partly because we've knowingly chosen to serve a sector which itself is often spending donated dollars - and thus is often financially stretched.
We're happy to do this - it's what we believe God has called us to do - but for us to really hit our straps, we need additional support. We have a strategic vision that is inspiring (that's what existing supporters have said) - but we fully can't achieve it any time soon without increased levels of support. We're in this journey for the long term, and we're resolutely committed to our mission to maximise ministry effectiveness, and build organisational character. If this resonates with you, we'd appreciate your support in one of the following ways:
1. Become a Member!
CMA membership is not very expensive, but it gets you inside the CMA loop - and every membership builds our network, builds our community, and furthers our mission. If cash flow is not an issue for you, please consider a two-or-three year membership, which saves us (and you!) some administrative overhead, and saves some money too. To join now, visit our secure Join Online page. |

2. Become a Sponsor
CMA's members and subscribers represent the decision makers of churches, ministries and businesses around Australia. If you offer a product or service to Christian leaders, or christian organisations, CMA has a broad range of sponsorship options and packages to help you convey your message to our network. Options include exhibition tables / booths, recognition in print, email and web publications, opportunities at over 40 events around the country, and more. To find out about become a valued CMA sponsor, whatever your budget, please contact us. |
