Fall Update and Grant Awarded! October 2024
As the Fall season arrives, we have continued to serve our neighbors in need, especially in our home delivery with increased deliveries and provision.
Clay Electric awarded CCC $5,000 through Operation Round-Up for building ramps this next year, and we are very thankful and excited for this support to continue expanding our Home Project program and providing for our neighbors in need.
God is good, and we continue to partner with more churches and individuals to help the church connect to our nieghbors and show them God’s love through service. Please consider joining our suppport team!

A Year on the Job - Summer 2024
Read a letter from our director reflecting on his first full year serving with CCC.
Also check out a really cool neighbor story about “Joe”. Joe recently lost a leg in a car accident, and we were able to serve him by building a ramp so that he can access his home (see picture below). It’s a moving read.
Finally, UF surplus was kind enough to donate dozens of tables and dressers to us. Big thanks to the university, and to City Church for providing us with some extra storage!

God's Faithfulness in Service - May 2024
Praise the Lord for answering our prayers for more furniture! Storage was low a few weeks ago, but he came through with enough to meet our immediate needs. We can always use more furniture, though (especially beds), so please continue giving!
Our volunteer pool has been expanding, which is another huge praise. This has allowed us to increase the rate at which we do projects, and allowed us to do more difficult installations (like bathroom grab bars).
Thanks to Richard, Roy and UF ROTC for helping an elderly neighbor with yard care (pictured below).

Below is a picture of the Powell’s One Another Group from Creekside Community Church raking leaves for an elderly neighbor with cancer. They collected 31 bags of leaves! Great job kids!
