Announcements – August 31st

Timbra Dye   -   August 28, 2025

We’re excited to invite you to join us for our upcoming 21-Day Fast, happening from September 1st – September 21st. The theme this quarter is “Seed, Time, and Harvest“, and we believe God is calling us to a deeper season of prayer, alignment, and preparation. As a church, we’re getting ready to move to two services, and we’re believing for a greater outpouring of God’s presence, transformation, and power. This fast is about sowing in prayer and expecting a harvest—not just for our church, but in our families, careers, education, and spiritual walk. Join us in this next fast and let’s go after God as a church family and believe for the harvest He has in store!

 

On Sunday, September 28th, we’re conducting our fourth Baptism for the year. This is an opportunity for anyone ready to publicly declare their faith in Christ and take Faith Plunge. If you are interested in being baptized or just want to learn more, click here.  We invite you to take this powerful step in your journey with Christ.

In 2025 digitalKENTE design studio is partnering with CityPoint Community Church to host a fashion showcase to highlight the creativity in apparel and accessory design living within Bronzeville. With this fashion event, during Chicago Fashion Week and Open House Chicago, we are honoring the legacy of this historic neighborhood and investing in its future. This event seeks to reawaken Bronzeville’s rich history of creativity and style while spotlighting emerging talent, celebrating Black artistry, and inspiring a new generation to carry the torch. We’re bringing the community together for an evening of celebration and excellence in craft while celebrating the historic contributions of the Black community in this neighborhood. We need an event committee and street team to work out logistics, and marketing! If you are interested in helping to plan this historical event, Sign up here! 
We’re circling back to our Brown Bag Food Pantry initiative. We’re still collecting donations to help stock our shelves—but we want to make sure we’re offering quality to those in need. As you bring your items in, please make sure they are new, unopened, and not expired. We had to toss a few donations in April because they weren’t usable, and we want to ensure that what we give is something we’d gladly receive ourselves. If you’d prefer to support financially, you can do that too! Just text the keyword Food Pantry followed by the dollar amount to 312-313-1800. Let’s continue to be a blessing to our community.
