Soul Rise Sessions are back!  If you enjoyed the morning calls during the fast, or if you’re simply looking to start your day with your mind and heart focused on Christ, this is for you. Soul Rise Sessions are 30-minute morning prayer calls where we spend a few moments in a quick devotional and then pray together to start the day. It’s a powerful way to grow in your faith and connect with a community pursuing a deeper relationship with the Lord. If you’re seeking more intentional time with God and want to start your mornings centered in Him, we invite you to join us.

 

We’re gearing up for an exciting and fun-filled Candy Rain Sunday — an amazing opportunity to bless our youth with loads of candy in a safe, joyful environment! We’ll be celebrating with a Trunk or Treat event, and we need your help to make it unforgettable! Join us after either the 9AM or 11AM service as we create a festive space for families in our community to enjoy. We’re looking for volunteers to decorate their trunks pass out candy (provided by CityPoint). If you’d like to volunteer to decorate your trunk, sign up here. It’s a fun and easy way to get involved and make a big impact.

We will also be reading the book, Theologizin’ Bigger: Homilies on Living Freely and Loving Wholly by Trey Ferguson. Join us on Monday, October 27th at 7PM for an intriguing discussion on both.

The Singles and Women’s Ministries are team up to put on our very first Friendsgiving. But it’s not your normal Friendsgiving…it’s a Color Party! It’s going down Saturday, November 15th at 6PM, right here at Citypoint. When you RSVP, you’ll get a color assignment — then on the night of the event, wear that color and bring a basket of snacks that match your hue!  You must register by Sunday, November 9th, so we know how much food to prepare. If you are looking for a night of good food, games, and even better company, then sign up today.

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.
