The CMC is taking necessary precautions to diminish the impact of Coronavirus on our community while continuing to provide services to our brothers and sisters in need. Now more than ever people in our community need our assistance to access basic resources. All regularly occurring CMC programs and meetings except those listed below are postponed until further notice. The CMC building is also closed to the public.
Current CMC Programming Schedule:
Daily Free Meal
Weekdays 4:00 to 5:00pm
Weekends 11:00am to 12:00pm
The meal is distributed to-go from the CMC parking lot.
Food Pantry

Thursdays 10:30am to 12:00pm
Food pantry sign-up and distribution will happen in the CMC parking lot. You will be asked to provide your name, how many people live in your household, and your full address including zip code. Personal essentials items will be distributed the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month during food pantry time.
