Central India Christian Mission (CICM)

A mission rooted in the gospel

Central India Christian Mission (CICM) is an indigenously led ministry serving across South Asia. Since 1982, CICM has met both spiritual and physical needs by feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, planting churches, mentoring leaders, and bringing the hope of Jesus to those who have never heard His name. Thousands of believers now carry that same message into their own communities, living out the Gospel with courage and compassion.

CICM’s mission

To courageously live for Jesus Christ and offer transformation to individuals and communities through Him.

CICM’s vision

Bringing the light of the Gospel to spiritually dark places in South Asia until all have heard and experienced the transformative power of the Gospel.
