A lot has happened in 2014:
- Youth Ministries merged with Creative Arts Ministries
- At the start of July 2014 CCCA's focus will be on schools/universities
- 'CRAM Connect' becoming independent from 'Creative Arts Ministries'.
Since 'CRAM Connect' looks to work with artists no matter where they sit (or which ministry they look to serve), the best fit is no longer with 'Creative Arts Ministries'. Until 'CRAM Connect' finds another organisation to sit under, it will remain independent.
The Q&A sessions and additional posts will still continue and will be published as soon as they are available. As for what the CRAM acronym now stands for, that is still up in the air! At the moment what I've come up with is 'Christ-Followers Rallying for Artistic Maturity'. Let me know what you think and if you have suggestions! (it's sounds a bit like a political party --- that's probably why I don't have complete love for the name yet).
Meanwhile Darren Hamilton (Previous Head of 'Creative Arts Ministries') has since moved on from CCCA and started a coaching business with his wife Judy. Darren is currently focused on leadership development (including executive coaching). If you are currently struggling to find the key steps towards unearthing your potential (because it is so easy to lie to ourselves and be in denial in the kind of progress we are making in life: 'that this is the best we could do') so you can reach more of your goals in the same time-frame, let me know and I can get you in touch with Darren (or he with you!).
