CBMC is a network of teams of local businessmen from all backgrounds and vocations from the Greater St. Louis area which meet together once a week for mutual support, encouragement, and growth.

What distinguishes CBMC from other groups is our acknowledgement of our need for God, and our commitment to support each other in all areas – financially, personally, vocationally, and spiritually.

CBMC St. Louis is attractive to a certain type of businessman - a man who is compelled to be a part of something more significant than himself, a man who is seeking something eternal and more valuable than business success alone can bring. CBMC St. Louis is the informal home for men who want to have an impact both in and beyond the business world.
