Mission
The mission of the Church Street Community Resource Center (CSCRC) is to demonstrate God’s love to our South Cobb County, GA community.
Vision
The CRC envisions being a primary source for a thriving, empowered, resilient community where, in the spirit of togetherness, we strengthen the bonds of neighborhoods and uplift the lives of residents to not only survive, but thrive.
Purpose
The Church Street CRC exists to provide or facilitate the delivery of essential social intervention, family services, humanitarian aid, disaster relief, lifestyle transformation programs, and other personal development assistance and education to residents in need of these services.
A BEACON OF HOPE
The Church Street Community Resource Center (CSCRC) was established to expand the community service work of Shiloh SDA Church. Anchored by the Food Pantry, the Church Street CRC is committed to serving as a vital hub for those in need in South Cobb County. While centered in Smyrna, GA we also service the areas of Austell, Mableton, S. Marietta, and Powder Springs. The newly rebranded Church Street Food Pantry and our continued partnership with the Atlanta Community Food Bank allows us to provide free food to address and eliminate food insecurity for the most vulnerable in our community.

At Church Street CRC (CSCRC), individuals and families can access an array of essential services, support, and information. The CSCRC was developed to address the diverse needs of the South Cobb community, including social, physical, health, economic, educational, and spiritual needs.
Collaborator
The CSCRC endeavors to promote a spirit of collaboration among various community organizations,
government agencies, and volunteers, all working together to strengthen the bonds of local neighborhoods and uplifting the lives of its residents. CSCRC is not just about providing immediate help; we hope to also empower individuals with knowledge and skills to lead more fulfilling lives.
The Church Street Food Pantry
The Church Street Food Pantry (formerly Shiloh Food Pantry) was established in 2012 when Shiloh
Church members began collecting and distributing non-perishable food items for the community. The
opportunity arose to partner with the Atlanta Community Food Bank to formalize and grow the pantry,
which now feeds over 600 families a month in the Smyrna community who are regularly in need of food
assistance.
