We are the inner city mission of First Christian Church. Our goal is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ by serving the less fortunate of Springfield's inner city with food and clothing
We are located at 427 West Washington Ave, Springfield, OH
GSOC is a stand alone 501(c)3 but receives a regular stipend from First Christian Church (http://www.fccconnect.org/) to buy food for needy family. We also can and do receive tax deductible financial, food and clothing support from individuals, organizations and businesses in the community.
Our present service center is one of the most active in the city. Our food and clothing pantry is open every Saturday morning from 9 to 11 and on the last two Tuesdays of the month from 1 to 3. We have a non denominational Christian service every Sunday mornings at 10:30. There is a continental breakfast in conjunction with that service.
Good Samaritan Outreach has no paid employees but is operated totally with volunteer labor. We have six trustees, one is at each session along with a dozen volunteers from a core of 60 volunteers who help out 1, 2 or 3 times monthly. There is a list of various volunteer opportunities on a weekly basis. Our volunteer schedule for our next four sessions is posted. Want to see who's been helping, visit our Thank you page.
