PACS is a Community of Service made up of staff, volunteers, donors, prayer partners and community partners who work together to provide food, low-cost dental care and low-cost clothing/household items to individuals and families.
What We Do
Our mission is: Following Christ’s example, we nourish the mind, body and spirit, while fostering dignity among those we serve. The word dignity is central to PACS’ approach to service. Our staff, volunteers and donors humbly follow Christ’s example by not just giving help, but also treating each person like a valued human being. When we restore someone’s dignity, we revive that person’s ability to realize their own potential and value, which is a key to finding success and self-sufficiency.

We would love to have you a part of the PACS family. Our youngest volunteer is four while the oldest is 90 years old. Come for a tour to learn more, but we hope afterwards that you will stay.
