The Clergy United For Christ (C.U.F.C.) formed in 2005, when Rev. Robert Williams became Pastor of Second Baptist Church Keyport. He envisioned a community approach to bring people together of varying faiths with the mission of Reaching out to the Community… Preaching to
the Unsaved…Teaching the Saved to Serve. He met with the pastors of eight (traditionally-recognized African-American) churches in Upper Monmouth County. These churches being:
Second Baptist Church Matawan, Matawan; the New Mount Moriah Baptist Church, Cliffwood Beach; New Light Baptist Church, Cliffwood Beach; St. Mark’s AME Zion Methodist Church, Cliffwood; St. James AME Zion Methodist Church, Matawan; Community Bible Fellowship Baptist Church, Cliffwood; Providence Baptist Church, Cliffwood; Wicker Memorial Baptist Church, Morganville.
From these meetings, it was decided that annually three major Community-based events would take place—Watch Night on December 31st to welcome in the new year and on Holy Thursday at a local house of worship, in addition to the Tent Crusade weekend in August, where the church buildings shut their doors to worship together in this open air forum. The first Tent Crusade event was in 2006.
Over the 6 years, C.U.F.C. has partnered with other local congregations to reach the broader community.
