Knoxville Christian Arts Ministries
Knoxville Christian Arts Ministries is a community-wide organization of Christian choral and instrumental musicians, handbell ringers, actors, and dancers who desire to use their gifts in ministry. Our mission is:
- To minister in the Knoxville area and beyond by sharing the good news of Jesus Christ through the medium of the performing arts.
- To minister to Knox-area Christian performing artists by providing a place for them to serve God through their art.
Concert @ Cedar Springs
Join us on Sunday, May 6 at 6:00 p.m. in the Cedar Springs sanctuary for our presentation of "Maggie's Story." We are excited to give everyone a chance to see the program that we have been presenting in Tennessee prisons, jails and inner-city ministries during the 2011-2012 performing season.

History
In 2005, the Cedar Springs Church Sanctuary and Handbell Choirs travelled to Peru for a ten-day mission trip, where they presented concerts in a number of universities and churches in Lima. They began to pray at that time that the trip would not be a self-contained event but would be the beginning of a continuing outreach ministry to the Knoxville area and further afield, as God led. The opportunities for service became so numerous that in July 2009 Cedar Springs commissioned Knoxville Christian Art Ministries as a ministry dedicated to missional outreach through choral and instrumental music, dance, and drama. Its membership now includes people from 21 different churches in the Knoxville area who desire to share the gospel of Jesus Christ through their art.
