This is how the CCL Foundation website described the event:
Jim Lloyd at last week’s ceremony.
On Wednesday, January 6, team members of the Christian Church Leadership Foundation met in the Bible & Theology Room of the Christian Church Leadership Center in Florence, Kentucky, to place the first books on the library shelves.
All three books were Bibles with historical significance to CCU alumni and friends. Dr. David Fincher, CCL Foundation president, opened the gathering, welcomed those watching in person and online, and introduced Jim Lloyd, director of library services.
Mr. Lloyd explained the significance of each Bible that would be placed on the shelves. One Bible had belonged to longtime Hebrew and Old Testament professor Wilke Winter, given to him by his father on Christmas Day, 1939. Another belonged to esteemed professor Lewis Foster, who taught at CCU for years and served on the first translation team of the New International Version
David Fincher serves as president of both CCCB and CCLF. A key milestone during 2020 was opening the
Christian Church Leadership Center in Northern Kentucky.
The CCL Center, located at 8095 Connector Drive in Florence, Ky. just south of Cincinnati is a 14,500-square-foot facility that now houses the three key ministries and serves as hub of ministry education and church support in the region. Classes began there in the fall.
Much has been accomplished during the past year. CCLF provided this listing of achievements during 2020:
• The Christian Church Leadership Foundation was legally registered in Ohio and Kentucky by Central Christian College of the Bible to continue ministry education in the Greater Cincinnati area through the Christian Church Leadership Network, the Elliott Library, and the Russell School of Ministry.
