Who we are


Community Emergency Service (CES) is a non-profit crisis relief and empowerment ministry that extends God's love to those in the inner city of South Minneapolis.  CES began in 1971 when prominent Twin Cities businessman Russell Lund approached Augustana Lutheran Church in Minneapolis, offering to help them enhance their outreach to poor people living in South Minneapolis.  Located in the Phillips (Ventura Village) Neighborhood, CES provides services to over 70,000 people annually.

Construction at CES

Thank you too all the supporters of CES for volunteering time and gifts toward renovating the facilities.  The project is nearing completion.  The refrigerator is installed, the offices are renovated and the elevator is a work in progress.  We look forward to serving the community for many years to come.
