How you can help OSC's response the migrant crisis

We want to update you on OSC’s involvement in the ongoing migrant crisis unfolding across San Diego County and how you can help with this urgent situation. Estimates are that over 7,000 asylum seekers have been dropped by Border Patrol at transit centers around the County over the past two weeks. On average, about 100 migrants are being dropped at the Oceanside Transit Center every day. This is likely to continue for several more weeks, if not months.

Can you help with the Sunday welcome team?

We still have a few spots for volunteers on our Sunday welcome team! Members of this team serve about one Sunday per month. They create a welcoming environment by setting up the coffee cart, offering a friendly face for people as the arrive, and handing out bulletins and communion cups. We provide all the supplies, you just show up a little early once each months and help welcome people as they arrive.
