Christ Community Church

Christ Community belongs to The Christian & Missionary Alliance, an association of over 18,000 churches around the world. The C&MA is an alliance of evangelical believers, joined together in local churches, committed to fulfilling the Great Commission given by our Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 28:19-20. Today, we are a growing missionary denomination committed to evangelism around the world through church planting, with churches in 66 countries and territories.

Christ Community Church began in 1933 as the result of tent meetings that were held in downtown Fort Myers. It became an officially organized church in February of 1937. The original name was The Christian & Missionary Alliance Church of Fort Myers. A corner lot was purchased for $100 and the men of the church constructed a building for the people to meet at a cost of $1,591.

In 1954 riverfront property on First Street was purchased, with construction on a new building beginning in 1955 and dedicated in 1957. In 1975, the name was changed to First Alliance Church.

In the early 1980s eight acres of property were purchased on Colonial Blvd. The first of two buildings was built and dedicated in 1983. Ground was broken for the second building, the Worship Center, in 1988 and completed and dedicated in December of 1989. This second building continues to serve the same purpose today, with the first building now serving as a Family Life Center.

In 1993 it was decided to change the name from First Alliance Church to Christ Community Church to reflect a desire to impact all of Lee County with the Good News and love of Jesus Christ.

For 80 years, Christ Community Church has been a light to the community of Fort Myers, while maintaining a strong missions focus overseas. We give praise to God for His hand of blessing since our earliest days.
