About CCM

Christ Church Mayfair, Down Street, London, W1J 7AN

Our Vision Statement:

We believe in... making disciples of Jesus Christ. In God's kindness, this has been the ministry of Christ Church Mayfair since the church was planted in 2001. Wonderfully, we've seen many come to put their trust in Jesus for the first time, and many more deepen their love and knowledge of Him. We all want to be disciples who grow and see many others trust in Jesus and grow in their knowledge and love of Him.

We Believe In:

Growing in Maturity, and so teach all that Jesus commanded in the Bible. Serving in Ministry, and so want everyone in the church family to serve and grow. Going in Mission, and so welcome all people to come and hear while training those here to go and tell.

The Church

The Christ Church Mayfair church family comprises of around 400 adults, 70 children and a handful of teenagers. We have a morning and evening service.

The morning congregation has a variety of ages and stages (though no retired people). In the main, however, it is young and growing families who attend.

The evening congregation is predominantly people in their 20s and 30s, with an increasing number staying into their 40s and beyond, who work in the City or Canary Wharf. A contingent of students, largely from Imperial College but increasingly from other universities, make up around 20% of the church family during term time.

We are an Anglican Church in the Diocese of London, originally planted from St Helen’s Bishopsgate, and also part of the Co-Mission network of churches.

The Staff

We are a happy staff team of twelve paid staff and currently five ministry interns (apprentices), some of whom are part-time.

The Senior Minister, Rev'd Matt Fuller, oversees a team which presently comprises:

• Associate Minister (Evening Service)
• Assistant Minister (Students)
• Two Women’s Workers
• Music Director
• Childrens Minister
• Families Worker
• Pastoral Worker (Youth)
• Director of Operations and Development
• Operations Manager (this role)
