Our Mission Call
 
 
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. Then the righteous weill answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes, and clothe you. When did we see you in prison and visit you?' The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."
 
We are to show the helpless the love of Christ through meeting their basic needs, thus opening their hearts to hear the Good News of jesus Christ, equipping everyone to grow in their spiritual journey through serving others in the community and the world, all to honor God's name.

Christian Community Service Center Benefits by Eating at Skeeter’s
In support of the awesome work that CCSC does for the disadvantaged in our community, the Skeeter’s on Weslayan would like to extend members of the 37 area congregations that support CCSC a special offer. This Skeeter’s location only will donate 20% of all designated purchases on EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK to CCSC. Please make every effort to participate, and encourage your friends from other area congregations to also join in this giving.

For accounting and cashier purposes, each customer is asked before they order to say simply “I support CCSC.” The CCSC receipts will then be gathered together and monthly disbursements to CCSC will follow. Please bring your family, sports team or a neighbor to Skeeter’s to help those in need served by CCSC.
