Serving The City
Opportunities To Serve Your City
At City Church, we desire to serve with others who are already renewing Houston with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We have established relationships with local and international mission partners because we believe they paint beautiful pictures of grace in deep pockets of brokenness.
