Community College Ministries is an alliance of community colleges and churches that seeks to address the critical needs of our communities.

We believe that this kind of partnership provides innovative ideas and new approaches to contemporary problems in the community college environment.

We believe in the responsible stewardship of faith and service in an ecumenical atmosphere and in programs consistent with the open door principles of the community college system.

We believe that the thousands of people who make up our college communities can provide a powerful witness of hope, encouragement, and compassion. The combination of educational opportunity and religious commitment opens new doors for better lives and better communities.

We believe that access to higher education is crucial, in this day and age, for individuals to be successful both personally and professionally.

We believe the principles in the gospel of Jesus Christ are the foundation for a more just and faithful community. Moreover, Community College Ministries can make an important difference in the lives of students, faculty, and others throughout southwestern and central Virginia.
