Compassion 1st
A Ministry of Blessing
Compassion 1st collects and distributes gently used clothing, household goods, and personal care items freely. This ministry has helped thousands of people in the past several years in local, surrounding communities, and even around the world. This God-sized work has been miraculous in the ways it has brought people together, often having exactly what is needed at the perfect moment, God’s timing.
Our Mission
To know God, to be His people, value others, and change our world. Compassion 1st seeks to be a part of the mission of Christian Life Center.
Our Vision
To be the hands and feet of Jesus by providing for people in physical and spiritual need whether in our church, in our community, or around the world.
Our Roll
To be a conduit of God’s grace and mercy; to be a place where things that are freely received are freely given to those who have a need
