Christ Theatre Ministry (CTM) formed in the fall of 2005 with the goal of working with youth of various faiths to “teach Christ through the arts.” While the primary arts focus is theatre, another goal of the group is to create community among young people. CTM performed Godspell in the spring of 2006 at St. Martin of Tours Church with great success. This past spring, CTM announced its new home and partnership with Harvest House. This partnership provides the group with a home base to stage productions, hold special events and fundraisers and regularly meet with volunteers and youth who come from many areas of Western New York.

Christ Theatre Ministry is to be commended for their efforts. They have crossed boundaries of age, schooling, and faiths to come together and offer their gifts to the community. At an age where the media bombards us with stories of teens gone bad, here in South Buffalo we are very fortunate to have teens of many different denominations, committed to demonstrating their faith through their gifts and talents, not just in theatre production, but also in community service and fellowship. Godspell was a tremendous hit, and so,we look forward to the success of this current production, and many more to come!
