OUR MISSION
Adventist Community Services is the official community outreach ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist church in the North American Division. ACS serves the whole person, a concept known as holistic ministry whose mission is to “serve communities in Christ’s name”. The Marshall Adventist Community Service Center provides food and clothing assistance to those in need.

ASCS PHILOSOPHY
The mission of ACS is to serve the community in Christ’s name. Therefore, the purpose of holistic ministry is not only to proclaim the Good News, the word of salvation, but also to demonstrate the love of God to people who are in need. Throughout Jesus’ ministry there is evidence of a genuine holistic approach toward humanity; especially people who were marginalized, disadvantaged, and disenfranchised from society. These included the poor, the sick, the unclean, the prostitutes, and tax collectors—all outcasts as sinful people. Jesus expanded the Kingdom of God to places, people, and cultures that the Jews had never considered God to be interested in and has thus set these examples for many (Matt 9:10, 21:31, Rom 14:14).
