History of CSS Lord, You call me, And I give Myself to You ; You teach me, And I yearn to be transformed ; You test me, And I walk steadfast in Your promise ; You anoint me, And I boldly sing Your praises. Lord, may I be an Instrument of unity in Your Church, A standard of integrity in Your service, And a voice of hope among Your weary children. O Lord, my Savior, I trust in You! Amen Catholic Social Services traces its beginnings to 1932 when Bishop Louis Kucera founded CSS to respond to the needs of persons suffering the effects of the Great Depression. We are an agency of the Catholic Diocese of Lincoln serving under the auspices of Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz. Christ Centered: To provide a structured, systematic formation program for our staff reflecting our Catholic faith, our unity in the Mystical Body and our vocation of Catholic charity. Diocesan Wide: To provide Catholic charity to every person in Southern Nebraska through a diocesan-wide network of the Catholic community.
