Our Vision

City Church exists to bring Christ’s beauty into brokenness.

Loving God

We are a place to explore faith and grow spiritually – discovering purpose, meaning, and fulfillment through a relationship with God. 

Loving Others

We offer a safe, welcoming place to flourish and find community. 

Loving the City

We care about pursuing justice, rethinking the purpose of our work, fostering creativity, and learning to love our neighbors well. 

What We Believe

We believe in the historic Christian faith as expressed in classic statements such as the Apostles’ Creed and Nicene Creed.

City Church is affiliated with ECO: A Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians.

Why do we take communion every Sunday?

Communion offers as a simple, tangible reminder of Jesus’ life, death, and grace—something we return to again and again together.

Why do we pray written prayers–old and new?

Repeated words can shape belief, guide worship, and help people express truths they may not have words for on their own.

Why do we always say a prayer of confession at City Church?

Confession creates space for honesty, humility, and transformation—helping people name what’s broken and move toward healing and renewal.

What are we trying to do in sermons?

Sermons are meant to do more than inform—they aim to shape how people see God, themselves, and the world, inviting transformation rather than just conveying ideas.

The Story of City Church

City Church began in 2015 gathering for the first time at the House of Blues Houston, when Leo Schuster and a small group of people set out to build an honest, welcoming community in the heart of the city. From those early days, the church has grown into a diverse network of neighbors and friends exploring faith and learning to follow Jesus in everyday life—at home, at work, and across Houston. Along the way, we’ve remained committed to creating space for thoughtful faith, meaningful relationships, justice, creativity, and serving our city well.

Stories of Grace

Stories of Grace highlight examples of God’s grace through his people, church, and community. Our hope is that you find encouragement in these stories.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Matthew 22:37, 39
