On Sunday Harrison will preach on Hosea 13:1-16, continuing our summer series, Love to the Loveless. We invite you to read ahead as a way to prepare for Sunday's service.
Visitors' Dessert: New to City Church? If so, you are invited to join us for an informal social on Wednesday, August 14th from 8pm-9:30pm at the Fords' home (2117 Floyd Avenue). This is a great way to connect with our community and learn more about us. Desserts, drinks, and other refreshments provided. RSVP to harrison@citychurchrva.com.
Wednesday Morning Prayer: On the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month we meet at 6:30am in the church office to pray (and on 5th Wednesdays we take a prayer walk around the neighborhood). Please join us tomorrow morning!
Coming Up Soon
Welcome Back Sunday: Please mark your calendars for our annual Welcome Back Sunday—this year it will be immediately after our service on Sunday, September 8th. We'll meet in the Fellowship Hall to share a meal and spend time with old friends and new. Bring a dish to share!
City Group Leader Training: We will hold a City Group leader training on Saturday, August 24th, 8:30am to 11:30am in room 303. This will be a time of teaching, discussion, and prayer for first-time City Group leaders and seasoned vets alike to help us prepare for the upcoming academic year. If you are leading a City Group in the Fall, we strongly encourage your attendance. Childcare is available. Please register for childcare by Monday, August 19th to secure a spot.
Middle School Fall Weekend: City Church of Richmond's Fall Middle School weekend will be September 6th through 8th. Middle School Weekend takes place at Young Life's Rockbridge Camp in Goshen, Virginia. We join with other churches from around the state to have fun building friendships and learning about God through times of worship, talks, small group discussion, and free time at the camp. Over the weekend the kids will have a chance to do all the activities that Rockbridge has to offer: zip line, ropes course, lake, pool, sports, and more. Registration is $150 and includes lodging and on-site meals for the weekend. Fill out the registration form here, and contact Jim (jim@citychurchrva.com) with questions.
Serving Our Community
Volunteer at City Church: Over the next few weeks our volunteer team leaders will begin putting together our fall volunteer rotation, and we’re always on the lookout for new volunteers. If you’re interested in helping out during our Sunday services (nursery, welcome team, facilities, music, sound, prayer, etc.), please email Val Catrow (val@ctiychurchrva.com).
Blocking Out Service Dates: If you are already a volunteer at City Church, please make sure to block out any dates you cannot serve for the October-January rotation by Friday, August 30th. This will be a huge help to our team leaders as they begin scheduling in a few weeks!
Have a great week—and we hope to see you soon!
