Paz de Cristo Community Center

We average over 7000 visits each month to Paz de Cristo  (about 2400 unique guests). While many of our guests make multiple visits to Paz, we average about 600 individuals each month that arrive at Paz for the first time ever. The majority of these visits are for food. Food has been a critical part of our mission since our inception in 1988. Our evening meal service and our food box distribution provides more than  50,000 meals every month to the homeless, the unemployed, the working poor and senior citizens.
