Grab a flyer from the lobby and get signed up for a slot on October 26, November 2, or November 9 to have the youth come help. Cost is $50 per hour per set of two teens (and an adult chaperone).
PARENT NIGHT OUT FUNDRAISER

SHOWER TRUCK MINISTRY UPDATE
We are pleased to announce that City Life will be continuing the partnership with Mel Trotter Ministries shower outreach through the end of November. We are taking the next three months to determine if we have the volunteer capacity to continue this ministry long-term. If you have considered helping out on Monday mornings (either regularly or once in awhile), we’d love to have you come and assist!
This summer we served nearly 300 people with showers, meals, clothing, and housing help. There are still people to reach through this ministry and we are looking forward to seeing where God takes us.
DATES: Mondays, 10:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. September 9–November 25
