We believe God calls all Christians to show compassion to those in need. Psalm 82:3-4 cries out, "Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked." Through our local compassion efforts, Central Bible Church seeks to meet the needs of people in our neighboring communities.
