Coming Up
Sunday with Scott Wilson
Sunday, 7 May: Finance and Stewardship
Dr. Scott Wilson has been involved with City Life Church for many years. He is part of our advisory board and helps with the development of City Life Church as an organization. As a theologian, he is a provocative speaker and in these services he will speak about God’s principles of finance and stewardship.
Ineke and Erald invite you to Vision Partners
Do you feel called or inspired to help build the church financially? Then Vision Partners is the setting to join. On Saturday, 6 May, there will be a Vision Partners’ Breakfast with Scott Wilson along with the presentation of our annual figures.
For Kids & Families
Champions Club
Our dream is that every family can attend a church service. Some children need extra care and/or attention and it is not possible for them to participate in the regular groups. That’s why we have the Champions Club! Champions Club is available during the second service for children up to and including 12 years of age who need extra care and attention, such as children with a (mental and/or physical) disability, autism or another challenge.
We offer a structured program in which reading from God’s Word, prayer and Kids-Worship are also a fixed part. Our team focuses on the mental, intellectual, emotional and physical level. All this in consultation with the parents.
KidsCamp
Every summer we have a children’s camp! We’re going away with the kids for a midweek and have a great program! Everything great will be there: Girls Night and Boys Night, games, campfire, Kids Church every day, cool activities, worship, camp connect, workshops, and much more.
Our team of about 35 people is already hard at work preparing. More than 50% of the available places have already been reserved. Is/are your child(ren) there?
Monday, 10 July to Friday, 14 July, for kids from group 3 to 8.
Young & Free SummerCamp
The best week of the year is also approaching for teenagers! SummerCamp is the place to be for a special time with God, (new) friendships, challenge, fun, adventure, pushing boundaries and lots of fun.
Please note: more than 90% of the places are already reserved!
Monday, 10 July to Friday, 14 July, 12 to 18 years

This evening is for all men who desire to go deeper with God, to spend time in worship and prayer, and to challenge each other in this.

Holy Spirit Nights visits Heart and Soul Night
In the lead-up to Pentecost, this Holy Spirit Night is a special evening: combined with our Heart & Soul Night, Pastor Erald will share something for all volunteers from all campuses. We’ll take a lot of time this evening for worship, prayer and the work of the Holy Spirit.
