Vision
Christ For the City International (CFCI) is a multi-cultural fellowship committed to multiplying churches which impact cities in strategic population centers, beginning in the Latin world. Our ministry strives to leave “No place without a witness, no church without a vision, and no person without hope”. We build ministries that meet the needs of the most desperate people in the world’s cities—street kids, prostitutes, orphans, the homeless, the unemployed and the destitute.

Missions Opportunities
Training Program
Before applying, we recommend all new full-time missionaries have previous short-term experience on the field. New personnel then go through an orientation and interview at the CFCI Central Office in Omaha. After being accepted, personnel attend language school for an average of one year unless they are already fluent in Spanish. During their time in language school, personnel will also receive hands on training at a CFCI ministry base. For short-term missionaries (1-2 weeks), training information is provided via email, website resources, and telephone.
