Good Samaritan Churches (GSC) - A GSC is the Nazarene designation for a local church involved in meeting the needs of a community through a direct program of the church. This could be anything from a group organized to volunteer at the local soup kitchen to a full, functional counseling service within the local church. Whereas a CMC operates as a separate entity, a GSC does similar ministry within the framework of the church. It is our goal and prayer that every local Nazarene congregation would be a Good Samaritan Church.
