Gulf Shores, Ala. — (OBA) — The Christian Service Center invites the community to enjoy a meal for a good cause at its annual spaghetti dinner later this month. The event promises an evening of food, fun, and fellowship while supporting local families in need. Dine-in and drive-through options will be available, allowing everyone to participate. Organizers say that participation will directly help the center’s mission of providing assistance and hope.

The dinner will be held on Monday, February 23, from 4 to 6:30 p.m. at Gulf Shores United Methodist Church, Building B, 1720 Highway 59, in the Publix Shopping Center.

Tickets are $10 and include dinner, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available. You can buy tickets at the Christian Service Center, 317 Dolphin Avenue, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to noon, or at the door on the event day. The annual dinner is one of the center’s biggest fundraisers, and this year’s event will also feature a raffle and sponsorship opportunities.

“The Christian Service Center is a ‘Hand Up’ rather than a ‘Hand Out’ agency,” organizers said, emphasizing the center’s mission to offer both emergency aid and guidance to clients. Beyond providing meals and financial help, the organization works closely with families to find sustainable solutions to daily challenges.

The CSC operates entirely with volunteers and is supported by local churches, the United Way of Baldwin County, community organizations, and caring individuals from across Pleasure Island. Those who want to learn more or get involved can call 251-968-5256 or visit www.cscgs.com.
