Thanksgiving Baskets: Serving with Zeal, Making God's Love Tangible!



Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.

Romans 12:11

When we are serving because we love God, we serve with zeal.

We know that good works do not win the favor of God.  However, God has, by His grace, forgiven our sins.  As recipients of God’s love, we are motivated to proclaim His love to others.


How can I proclaim His love?

One way is by making it tangible to others by serving them in His name.


Lining up, and signing up to share the love of God.




Thanksgiving Baskets make His love tangible.

If you are a member or regular attender of Christ Community Chapel (CCC), you can proclaim His love by signing out a Thanksgiving Basket and filling it with food you donate so others can have a great Thanksgiving meal.  CCC Love In Action 24/7 is on, as members are lining up for the opportunity to be generous to our Akron area neighbors in need.    Way to Go CCC Members!

Why not join us in making God’s love tangible throughout the Akron area?

Thanksgiving Baskets – Making God’s Love Tangible!


God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

From I John 4:16


God lives in believers, so we can show His love to others.

God extends His love to men and women through the birth, life, sacrificial death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus. Jesus Christ paid the penalty for our sin, restoring our relationship with God the Father. We have been redeemed for a purpose; to demonstrate the love of God to others.


CCC's Thanksgiving Baskets initiative is on!


How can we show God’s love to others?

By serving others in the name of God. 

One great opportunity is the Christ Community Chapel Thanksgiving Baskets drive.




How does this work?

Friends and members of Christ Community Chapel (CCC) are encouraged to donate the contents of a basket with food for a great Thanksgiving dinner to feed up to 10 people. CCC will be signing out 1,500 baskets to those willing to donate food on the weekends of November 4/5,  11/12 and 18/19. The filled baskets will be returned by food donors to the Hudson Campus on Monday November 20th  9 AM to 5 PM.

By contrast, our CCC Highland Square and Aurora Campuses, will be signing out the baskets the weekends of November 4/5 and 11/12. Baskets will be retuned to Aurora on the 19th and HighlandSquare on the 20th. 





Some say that food is love. Join us in making God’s love tangible this Thanksgiving season!
