The first official meeting of Alive For Christ Ministries (AFCM) as a church body was held Saturday, January 8, 2011, at the home of Elder Melvin and Sister Clarissa Davis.

Elder Davis reminded us to dwell on trusting in God’s word; to believe that He will bless this Ministry if we let Him lead us, and to know that there is nothing too hard for God. He also asked us to keep ourselves true to the ministry and to always pray and stay strong in the Lord. Following the first meeting, there was fellowship among the eighteen (18) saints that were present on that day.

On January 18, 2011, documents were submitted and filed with the Secretary of the State of North Carolina to reserve the entity name of Alive For Christ Ministries, Inc.

During the month of January 2011, the members met at Bette Rae Recreation Center, located at 2921 Tuckaseegee Road, to hold Bible Study while searching for a location to gather for Sunday worship services.

Articles of Incorporation of Alive For Christ Ministries, Inc. were filed with the North Carolina Department of The Secretary of State February 8, 2011.

After securing a worship location, the first Sunday Worship service was held February 6, 2011, at Wilson Middle School at 7020 Tuckaseegee Road. We continued to meet at this location through the end of June 2011. Due to the closing of Wilson Middle School by Charlotte Mecklenburg School System, we moved our Sunday Worship service to Hornets Nest Elementary School at 6700 Beatties Ford Road.

On April 3, 2011, Elder Melvin Davis was ordained as Founder and Pastor of Alive For Christ Ministries and Sister Clarissa Gardner Davis was ordained as Deaconess under the Partners to the Promise Conference of Churches.

After much prayer and searching, God blessed Alive For Christ Ministries with a place to call our own; where we continued to do ministry and increase in Christ. In the Spirit, God had already prepared a new home for AFCM.  On Sunday, March 4, 2012, Alive For Christ Ministries held the first worship service in the new location at 645-H Pressley Road, Charlotte, NC 28217. 

From May 2011 to December 2013, sixteen (16) members joined the Ministry, four (4) of these were new candidates for baptism. To date AFCM has fifty (50) members on roll; forty (40) of whom are active.

In January, 2020, God blessed Alive for Christ Ministries with our permanent church edifice located at 207 Hoover Avenue, NE, Concord, North Carolina 28025; a blessing for which we are eternally grateful as we continue to labor in His service.

Future plans for Pastor Melvin Davis and AFCM are to follow our Pastor as he follows Christ; serving the community and edifying the Saints.
