Mission Opportunities

As suggested in an earlier post we want CityChurch to have a strong incarnational edge to it. This means pouring our lives into communities and people groups that needs Jesus. At present we are exploring 2 possible opportunities to do just this. They may or may not be things we finally commit to but the opportunities are exciting!

The first is on one of the city's estates. It is an area with no strong church presence according to the local Christians and it has lots of need. In the middle of this estate we have found an inspirational woman who has seen the lives of many locals transformed. We are exploring whether or not we can invest in this area. Are you up for moving onto an estate in Leicester and pouring your life into a needy community?

The second opportunity is very different! Missions organisation WEC have shown some interest in exploring the possibility of partnering with us as we look to work with people from other religions in the city. Who knows what will come of this, but we start talking with WEC tomorrow!
