City Groups are continuing to meet, whether in-person or online, and we would love for you to connect with a group so you can experience the joy of growing in your faith in community. If you are already in a City Group, but your group is unsure how best to connect in this season, we want to help you take your existing group online. We’ve developed resources to help you easily transition to a virtual environment.
Citylight Church is committed to both gathering and scattering as the church. Jesus has called us to make disciples and we believe the best way to make disciples is to scatter throughout the week in City Groups. A City Group is a mid-sized community that is being transformed by the Gospel, growing as a spiritual family, and serving a specific neighborhood or network of Omaha. We want everyone to be a part of a City Group to experience a spiritual family that shares life together and serves a common purpose.
NEW CITY GROUP LEADER COHORT
Kick-off 4.25 | Zoom training 5.3
Do you feel called to lead a new City Group or to multiply within an existing City Group with new leadership? If so, join us in a nine-week leadership Cohort where you will learn the basics of leading a missional community and sharpen your leadership skills. The Leadership Cohort will kick-off April 25, followed with seven weekly Zoom training meetings and a final celebration gathering July 11. We look forward to launching new City Groups in the summer!
JOIN A CITY GROUP
We want everyone to be a part of a City Group to experience a spiritual family that is being transformed by the gospel, sharing life together, and serving a neighborhood or network in Omaha. See the complete list of groups below for your gathering location.
HUDDLES
Huddles are an extension of your City Group where you will experience greater depths of discipleship. These smaller gender-specific groups foster environments of trust and accountability.
