Changing The World, One Life At A Time…
The Christian Center is an inter-denominational, community-focused resource facility and user-friendly contact point for religious, social, and humanitarian services to the community. The Center seeks to network individuals, churches, agencies and organizations, in order to provide programs and services that foster a stronger community; physically, emotionally and spiritually. In short, the Christian Center of Park City exists to meet people at their point of need as an expression of God’s love.
We at the Christian Center are uniquely positioned to offer the practical, daily needs of food, clothes and furniture that people need to not only survive but to thrive. We require no membership, dues, or compliance with our faith traditions to be served by our programs and services. Check out the specific programs listed on this page.

New Goshute Initiative:
Thanks to a generous grant from Jane Shock and American Express, starting this school year, we will be providing healthy, kid-friendly food each week to the school children of the Goshute Tribe, in far Western Utah. Over the past ten years, the Christian Center has organized 15 trips down to the Navajo people living around the southeastern edge of Utah, in the “Four Corners” area. We are now excited to be partnering with the Goshute tribe of Western Utah, by delivering healthy, kid-friendly food to be distributed each week to their school children. We will be providing a backpack full of school supplies the first week of school, in addition to the bag of food. Each subsequent week, we will ensure that every school child has a backpack full of healthy food each week, throughout the school year.

New Refugee Program:
During 2007, there were approximately 500 refugees from Myanmar (formerly Burma), most of them from the Karen ethnic group living in refugee camps in Thailand, who arrived in Salt Lake City ready for a fresh start in a new country. Since then, even more Burmese Karen, Karenni and Chin have come to Salt Lake City since then. In the next month, there will be a group of them relocated to Heber City. They are being moved here from Salt Lake for new employment opportunities. Most of them have been in refugee camps for the last 10 years prior to coming to the United States, and they are in need of help. From clothes, to food and furniture, we are ready to help meet them at their point of need.
