Christ Alive Christian Center, founded by Pastor Dean & Debrah Brown, held its first service on Sunday, April 4th, 1993. The service was held in the basement of the home of Gladstone and Myrna Brown (the parents of Pastor Dean Brown), located at 2116 Strang Avenue, we had 53 in attendance. At first, we only had services on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. As children became a part of the church, we started our Children’s Ministry in the form of a Sunday school. Not long after, we started our DUNAMIS Youth Ministry.
In August of 1994 the church relocated to 3906 Seton Avenue with a membership of approximately 45 people. There we expanded our Children’s Ministry by adding a bi-weekly KIDS Church on Saturdays, and holding Youth Services on a weekly basis. On Mother’s Day 1996, we held our 1st service at our present location with approximately 125 people. Since then we have grown significantly. Our Children’s Ministry now held on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings has seen significant growth as well. The Children’s Ministry now includes a growing nursery as well as KINDER and KIDS Church. In addition, we have seen the Youth Ministry develop and grow to the point where we now have Pre-teens and Teens meeting separately. In April of 2002 Christ Alive Christian Centre in Kingston, Jamaica was started. This is a fulfillment of the vision the God has placed in the heart of Pastor Dean. Also in Jamaica, we have an outreach ministry to the poor and homeless, Christ Alive Missions (originally Golden Age Christian Fellowship Mission Ministries). Other Churches have also been planted or adopted into the Christ Alive family, Lighthouse Christian Center (Long Island City, NY) and Living Word Church (Morris Park section of the Bronx).
We are excited about the future of CACC. We have grown and will continue to grow and fulfill the vision that God has given. We can truly say, as we look back on the past, that:
