loveacts

Nicole Gerbino | Area Leader


We believe being a Christian, a follower of Jesus, means we need to put our love into action. We should not just say we love people. We should show people we love them by helping and serving them in tangible ways. The LoveActs ministry area is our way of serving needs of our local community and at the same time showing the community how God's love feels.  If you are interested in getting involved with us, we love partnering with individuals, groups and businesses throughout our community. Email us and let's show how LoveActs!

CCC provides two to three tons of free food once per month to local families in need through our Food Distribution ministry. We are currently distributing the food at Walker Elementary School, located in Mira Mesa, on the first Thursday of the month at 3:30 pm. Any family who could use some help meeting their grocery needs is welcome to come out and receive food.

 

Volunteers from the community can serve from 2:00pm - 5pm, helping to sort and distribute the food. It is a great way to help in our local community. We have had clubs, employer groups, and local organizations help in the past – it is a wonderful opportunity to serve together as a team or meet some new friends. We also need volunteers who are able to lift heavy boxes when we unload a truck at 2:00. Click here to sign up to volunteer.

Operation Christmas Child

Annually the church fills shoeboxes with gifts for children in poverty stricken nations so they can experience the love of Christ, hear the Gospel and celebrate Christmas. This campaign takes place in October each year so watch your bulletins for more information. Watch for sales and begin preparing your boxes ahead of time.
