Dedications: 8.24 | 8:30 & 10:30 AM | Midtown & West
It is a great joy and privilege for us as a church to come alongside you as parents to encourage, support, equip, and commission you as the primary spiritual influences and disciple-makers of your children. Over the course of this class we will dive into what parent commissioning is, why we dedicate children, and the importance of parenting in community.

Christian Formation Class
9.7 - 11.16 | 10:30 AM - 12 PM
Midtown Classroom A1 & West Adult Classroomt
Who will I be in five years? The answer to that question has to do with what is forming me. The goal of every Christian is to be formed into the image of Jesus. But we are also actively being counter formed by what we give our attention to, things we buy, things we consume, things we binge, and the images that show us what the good life is. This class teaches us how to be formed into the image of Jesus by active dependence on God through spiritual disciplines involving truth, obedience, suffering, and community. As we apply these disciplines, our hearts are changed. Whether you are new to the faith or grew up in the church, this class will help you understand, value and employ these practices in your own life as you seek out the gospel. This class is more than information, but a practical pathway to growth. Register at citylightomaha.org/classes.
Women's Bible Study - Exodus Part 1
9.9 - 11.18 | 7 - 8:30 PM | Midtown Sanctuary
9.10 - 11.19 | 9:30 - 11 AM | West Sanctuary
The exodus of the Israelites shapes our understanding of the whole Bible and its themes continue all the way to Revelation. Exodus is a book about the birth of a nation unmistakably guided by the Great Deliverer. Spend 11 weeks with us as we explore Exodus 1–18 which shows us that Israel’s story is our story: the same God who delivered Israel also delivers all who believe in Him. He lifts our eyes to the promised land He has prepared where we dwell with I AM and worship Him as the one true God. Register at citylightomaha.org/studies.

In addition to providing food, clothing & hygiene items, they also provide services that promote self-sufficiency to help break the cycle of poverty and empower individuals and families to improve their lives. Their hope is that everyone who comes through their door knows that they are loved and that there is hope for their future. Let's shower moms in our community with hope.
