Welcome to our Website!
CTLC is an ecumenical
organization of over 30 local churches working with
the support of area business and social service
groups to meet basic human needs on a temporary
and/or emergency basis. Our staff is composed
entirely of volunteers who assist from 80 to 160
families per week. These include street people, the
elderly, the disabled, and those marginally employed
or unemployed.
-
If you are a person needing
assistance from CTLC, please go to our
Services
page for a description of the kinds of
assistance we offer and our hours of operation.
-
If you or your
organization would like to volunteer to work
during the week in assisting families and
individuals who come in for help, please click
on our Volunteers page. There are several areas
that you can volunteer to work in.
-
If you need someone to
speak to your group or organization about CTLC,
speakers are available. Just call us
during Donation Hours (see below) at
254-778-6885 and ask for the director, Cynthia
Russell, or email
us at
ctlc@ctlcministries.org and we'll set
something up.
-
If you would like to make
a donation of food, clothing and/or household
items, please see the Donations page. Financial
donations are also needed to purchase many of
the food and hygiene items given out
information on how to make such a donation can
also be found on this page.
-
At
times CTLC runs short of certain items that we
would normally try to have available to give to
the families/individuals who need them. You
will find a list of those items on the
Current
Needs page.

years and a constant promoter of this ministry, was
tragically killed on May 23rd. He is sincerely
and deeply missed by all the volunteers at CTLC. Please

-
We are asking the church members of our
participating churches to
donate food
for the
rest of the year to our food pantry. Each
church is assigned a specific type of food to be
responsible for during the year.
Click here for
more information. We dont want giant
economy sizes because we are unable to
re-package any foods.
-
We
need LOTS of VOLUNTEERS
on Tuesday afternoons and Saturday mornings.
-
We have a great need for
used pew Bibles,
paperback or hard cover, if you are needing to
find a new home for them.
-
Julie
Lamme is teaching a beginning
computer class for clients on
Tuesdays 9-11 AM.
-
The Wednesday beginning computer class
will resume in September.
- We have a great need
for 3 able-bodied men
to help load and unload and at least 1
man with
a pick-up truck to pick up food from TLC and
then help unload it at CTLC on Wednesday
mornings at 8:00. Anyone who volunteers
should be able to lift heavy loads with no
problem.

We want to thank all of the people who have sent
memorials to CTLC in memory of
Reuben Talasek
and
Billy Streater.
We received about 10 memorials for Rueben and
about 125 for Billy. All of the money has been
greatly appreciated and we have been in the
black financially for two months straight as a
result of the memorials.
- Thank you to Humble House
for the young men who help move and load/unload
groceries on Wednesday mornings. We are SO
grateful.
