​We are thrilled to extend a heartfelt invitation to our beloved church community
for a special fundraising musical gathering that aims to support Safe Car Park, a
ministry dedicated to assisting individuals who find themselves living in their cars.
This event promises to be an uplifting and memorable experience, filled with
music that revolves around the theme of love.
Our concert will feature a diverse array of musical performances, all centered
around the powerful theme of love. From soulful ballads to joyous anthems, our
talented musicians and vocalists will weave a musical tapestry that celebrates the
universal language of love.
This concert is to raise funds in support of CGS’ Safe Car Park Ministry. This
invaluable ministry works tirelessly to provide assistance and support to those
who are living in their cars, offering a safe haven and necessary resources to help
them navigate through challenging times.
We encourage you to participate in this cause by attending the event and making
a contribution towards our fundraising efforts. No need to purchase tickets to see
the concert, but we will be collecting free-will donations during the event. Your
generous donations will go directly towards supporting CGS’ Safe Car Park
Ministry and making a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
Let us come together as a community to spread love and make a difference in the
lives of those who need it most. Your presence and support at this musical
concert will contribute to the success of our fundraising initiative and, more
importantly, help Safe Car Park Ministry continue their vital work.
We look forward to seeing you there for an afternoon filled with beautiful music
and the warmth of community spirit.

February is just around the corner, and with it the Safe Car Park program will be back at
CGS. Help is needed to welcome the guests to our church site. For those unfamiliar
with the program, CGS is a member of the Silicon Valley Safe Car Park network. We
participate in hosting single adults and families sleeping in their vehicles to have a safe
place to stay.
Our church community has been very welcoming to Safe Car Park guests. Planning for
the February visit is in full swing. Volunteers are needed for evening check-in (6:30
p.m.) and morning check-out (7:30 a.m.). We host a community meal on Tuesday nights
during the month. Please use the sign-up sheet if you would like to prepare one of those
meals. Donations of restaurant/grocery gift cards and gasoline gift cards are also
always needed. In addition, donations of non-perishable snacks will be gladly accepted.
(Please, all snacks individually wrapped.) We have set up an Amazon wish list link, to
make it easy for you to donate and have it delivered to the church.
The current link for instructions and volunteers to sign-up is below:
 SIGN UP sheet on Sign Up Genius
 INSTRUCTIONS for volunteers
We look forward to welcoming Safe Car Park guests to CGS, and providing them a
warm and welcoming place. Please feel free to contact anyone on the team if you have
any questions.
