christmas gathering

With so many traveling for the holidays we like to celebrate the Christmas miracle the Sunday prior. On December 21st we will light the Christmas candle and usher in the hope of the season. Dress in your Sunday best, invite your friends and family.

upcoming gatherings

At City Beautiful Church we like to slow down at the beginning of each year so we might listen to the Lord for direction and build rhythms that keep us grounded in Jesus.

Below are the themes for the next few Sundays that will help us stay connected to God and to one another:

DECEMBER 28TH: TESTIMONY SUNDAY

A time to share what God has done in 2025 in the lives of our friends.

JANUARY 4TH: EPIPHANY

The revelation of Christ to the Gentiles, and the culmination of the Christmas Season.

JANUARY 11TH: COMMUNITY VISION SUNDAY

The Word of the Lord for 2026 - Where is God taking us this year?

JANUARY 18TH: PERSONAL VISION SUNDAY

Asking God for a word or phrase that will guide each of us in 2026, and developing a “rule of life” to help us stay focused.

JANUARY 25TH: PRAXIS

An opportunity to commit to one another through serving and discipleship in 2026.

local/global organizations

Each Sunday during our series TIKKUN OLAM our LocalGlobal team highlighted an organization doing the good work in our city and beyond. Our hope is that you find a cause that resonates with you that you can support through finances and/or volunteering. All organizations are listed at the bottom of the LocalGlobal page:

generosity guide

If we care about God’s justice, we will reprioritize our time and resources to show it. To become more generous is to become more like God.

Below you will find a guide for organizing your finances to better align with God’s priorities. This is not a hard principle to follow, but rather a template that may help you think more deeply about where your money goes and why.

sabbath encouragement

We want to continue putting Sabbath practice front-and-center in our life of faith. Below you will find a handout that asks some questions to help you craft a Sabbath that emphasizes worship, rest, and delight. Take time in the coming weeks to journal your thoughts, or if you are married and/or have kids, talk through it together.
