The Church of God, a Worldwide Association met in Orange Beach for the ninth year during the week of October 17, 2022. It is their desire to bless our communities while they are here, and again they showered the Christian Service Center with an amazing abundance of giving. Each day the group collected food, household goods, paper products, hygiene items, baby supplies, and cash donations. This year they also collected toys and art supplies which will be used in area pre-K and after-school programs as well as CSC’s Birthday Club.

Over $13,000 was donated by charitable attendees. This amount will purchase 87, 500 pounds of food from Feeding the Gulf Coast food bank–that’s over 43 tons of food! Their generosity will aid families in need in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Fort Morgan. We at CSS are overcome with gratitude.
