How Can We Help You Today?
A collective of twenty-two churches in downtown Ottawa
The Centretown Churches Social Action Committee (CCSAC) is a collective of twenty-two churches in downtown Ottawa. CCSAC was started in 1967 by nine churches to respond to social needs in the Centretown area. CCSAC has undertaken many initiatives on behalf of people who are socially and economically disadvantaged in our community. Since 1978, CCSAC’s main project has been oversight of the Centretown Community Food Centre (CEFC). CCSAC’s mandate also includes advocacy for social justice, especially for issues relating to poverty.

When fear feels loud, faith reminds us who God is. David didn’t deny the giant, he trusted a bigger God. Today, speak less about what scares you and more about the One who goes before you. Your confidence doesn’t come from your strength, but from His faithfulness. 🤍
“The battle is the Lord’s.” (1 Samuel 17:47)

February, we’re choosing peace. Not the kind that depends on circumstances, but the kind that settles the soul and quiets the mind. The peace God gives - steady, anchoring, and unshaken by worry. This month, we rest in His nearness and trust Him with what we cannot control. 🙌
“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you.” — John 14:27
If these daily words breathe life into your soul, our devotionals hold even more grace and grounding. Visit our website to discover them. Your support helps us share hope with the world. Link in bio.

Winter invites us to slow our breathing, soften our pace, and let the quiet do its healing work. In the stillness, God restores what noise has worn thin. May this season remind you that rest is not wasted time, it’s sacred ground. ❄️

Thank you Ottawa Innercity Ministries for all the good work you do. Lovely to hear success stories. 👏🏼👏🏼A dream is now a reality! 🎓✨ For many, education is a given. For two of our resilient youth, it felt like a distant dream until now. They’ve just been accepted into a course at the University of Ottawa! 🏛️
This isn't just a class; it’s a door to a whole new world of possibilities. They are proving that with a little support, no barrier is too high 🫂️
📖 Read their full journey of hope on our blog: link in the comments 👇
