Over 4 decades later, Roger has a body of work exceeding 20

musicals and 6 collections.

There are also two books, Worship Works and Spirit Works, written in conjunction with his colleagues Annie Routley and Helen Pollard.

In 1973 Roger Jones

composed his first musical, Jerusalem Joy,

for his secondary school choir.

Beyond a performance Every musical contains music that challenges and encourages. There are times of worship, spaces for God to move and speak, as well as lyrics that take people right to the heart of the Gospel. One of the core values of Christian Music Ministries (CMM) is that neither choir nor audience members will leave a performance with just a feeling of ‘Didn’t they do well.’ Instead of a memory that fades, they will have an experience of worship and the power of the Holy Spirit that transforms hearts and lives.

Beyond a musical CMM is not just an organisation that performs and resources others to perform musicals. Roger’s musicals are an excellent diving board, enabling individuals and churches to move away from just paddling, diving deeper into worship and life in the Holy Spirit. Through seminars, workshops, and music weeks, as well as performances, CMM has a unique ministry resourcing and encouraging many in their evangelism and Spiritual growth.

In line with the mission statement, CMM has some exciting plans for the next stage of the ministry:

1. Torn Curtain—continuing to use this exciting musical about worship, healing and wholeness throughout the UK.

2. Spirit Works and Worship Works—utilising teaching from these books to lead training days, seminars and retreats.

Get involved with CMM:

Participate Invite Roger and/or his colleagues Annie Routley and Helen Pollard, along with associate musicians and singers, to come to your church or organisation. CMM can lead anything from a musical from scratch in a day (Annie and Helen only) through to assisting with a larger production, including worship and Bible teaching for all ages. The team can also lead a Worship Works or Spirit Works weekend, using material from the books and music to provide ministry and equip for mission. Attend one of our events or music weeks. Keep your eyes on our Facebook page or ask to be on our email or postal mailing list—contact the CMM office on office@cmm.org.uk or 01527 576440. Volunteer as a vocalist or instrumentalist. If you have a heart for the Gospel, you are welcome to join our network of volunteer associates. Please contact the CMM office to arrange a meeting. Instrumentalists should be approximately grade 8 standard and willing to have a go at improvising. Vocalists please send a demo recording of your voice.

Pray Intercessors regularly pray for us and our diary of events. Some people are called to be Prayer Warriors, involving listening to God and being involved on our behalf in spiritual warfare (see Ephesians 6:12-13). Contact office@cmm.org.uk if you would like to be added to the Prayer Warrior list.

Provide More than thirty years ago a charitable trust was set up to support Roger Jones’ itinerant ministry financially. Every month the CMM Trust (formerly EBRG Trust) provides a grant to Roger to support him and Mary, Annie, Helen and an administrative assistant. This grant enables Roger and the CMM team to continue writing and resourcing, as well as to keep the costs to churches of CMM’s visits as low as possible. Income from book and CD sales goes to CMM which is non-profit making. This helps maintain publishing, promotes events, covers Roger’s travel and supports Tim Jones as head of sales. Give a one-off donation or regular gift to the CMM Trust. Gift-Aiding allows us to claim tax back at the current rate for every pound donated. Are you thinking of making or amending your will? The CMM Trust welcomes legacies.
