OUR VALUES
Faith, Growth and Fruitfulness
We lead from our values so that people live out a passionate walk with God, grow and develop, and bear lasting fruit.
Faith
“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. … And without faith it is impossible to please [God] ...” (Hebrews 11:1,6, English Standard Version). Living this out means that we, as an organization, aim to keep our focus on God and not on ourselves. Because Jesus said “... for apart from Me you can do nothing” (John 15:5, ESV), we realize our need for Him in every aspect of life and ministry. We depend on His Spirit moment by moment, yielding to Him as He instructs, abiding in Him and seeking to maintain a wholehearted devotion to Him.
Growth
“Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ” (Colossians 1:28, ESV). This value says that, as an organization, we are committed to the maturity of the people God has entrusted to us. This challenges us to develop multiplying leaders who care for people. We focus our efforts on discipleship — both in ourselves and in others — pursuing character change rather than simply completing a training program. This value refers to not only individual growth, but also our collective growth.
Fruitfulness
“... Whoever abides in Me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit … but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide ...” (John 15:5,16, ESV). Fruitfulness means that, as an organization, we are willing to examine the results of our efforts. Specifically, we look for people to come to Christ, to be changing into conformity with Christ, and to take His message to the world. It drives us to focus on not just our activity, but also our effectiveness. Because the Lord has entrusted so much to us, we strive to be good stewards, seeking the best return for our efforts.

history
THE BEGINNING
The groundwork for the KCCC ministry in Los Angeles was laid by “Nazareth Brothers”, a sister-ministry of KCCC for college alumni.
Korea Campus Crusade for Christ was established in New York by Young Won Kang, the first KCCC staff member.
Soon Young Kang from Korea became the very first full time staff and director of KCCC LA. Under his leadership, various layman ministries are launched and bear fruits such as “Layman Discipleship Training,””Family ministry” and “Q.T. ministry.”
THE BUILDING: YEAR 1996-1997
VISION CONFERENCE
Vision Conference is an annual winter convention hosted by KCCC with an open invitation to college students to experience personal revival and to seek their vision from the Lord. A day of fasting begins this powerful conference, followed by world-renown speakers, compelling seminars, and creative worship. In 1997, the conference had 7 attendees- by 2005, this number had risen to almost 1100, testifying to the power of Vision Conference, as students find healing and true meaning in their lives.
GCTC: The Great Commission Training Center.
GCTC is Campus Crusade for Christ’s staff training program. The program is an intense one-year training course designed to equip and train those individuals who receive God’s clear calling to serve as full-time ministry workers. With the first GCTC class comprised of just twelve graduates, the steadfastness in the number of new trainees has produced a total of 83 KCCC USA full-time staff members, all having undergone this vigorous spiritual training.
SUMMER MISSION
Beginning in 1997 with 35 students, KCCC Summer Missions has expanded to send out 390 students to over 9 different countries in 2005. Summer Missions is a program facilitated by the ministry with the goal of sending students overseas to evangelize withing the “10/40 Window,” the least evangelized nations in the world. Those who are sent out as short-term missionaries giving the opportunity to develop loving relationships with the people on the 10/40 Window. By sharing the name of Jesus to people of all nations, KCCC seeks to share God’s unconditional love and thus fulfill the Great Commission.
GETHSEMANE PRAYER MOVEMENT
Initiated in 1997, Gethsemane began as a prayer movement to fuel the KCCC ministry’s vision, faith, and growth. Since then, it has escalated into a powerful weekly gathering of passionate college students who come to experience heartfelt praise and worship, stirring campus presentations, an meaningful messages. Named after Jesus’ encounter at the Garden of Gethsemane, these prayer meetings are punctuated by students’ loud cries for personal, campus, nation, and world revival.
THE GROWTH: YEAR 2002-2004
STINT
STINT, or Short Term International is a program for students who want to dedicate themselves to a 6 month to year-long mission overseas. A STINTer’s main goal is to help strengthen and build solid Christian leadership within the growing Christian nations of East Asia, Japan, Kazakhstan, and Cambodia.
KCCC BUILDING PURCHASE
The KCCC building that was purchased in 2004 is true testament and answer to the many prayers of staffs and students as God has allowed the ministry to obtain the support to purchase a building that was far beyond expected. Currently this building serves as a training center for students and future staff. In the future, this building will become a center for campus revival and center for student prayer movements.
