Vision
With that purpose, City Church has carefully organized the ministries our church so that we can work together, by the power of the Spirit, to effect great change in San Francisco. To call the people of the city to be stewards of their power and gifts for the honor of Christ and the benefit of urban communities, City Church challenges Christians of the city not only to live within the city, but to serve.

Connecting
Connecting San Franciscans to Christ through:

• Evangelistic worship. Our worship services are designed to both build up those who believe and to challenge and help those who doubt or seek.
• Group-based ministries. The backbone of our church will be a network of small groups and ministry teams, in which face-to-face friendships and caring develops.

Building

• Building Christians into Servant-leaders through:
  Church Family Life ministries. Believers are to relate to one another as "brothers and sisters" in Christ. Christians of all ages and family status are to provide the support for each other of a Christian family.
• Caring ministries. Through our network of support groups, classes and seminars we aim to provide a context for spiritual growth. Our future plans include a counseling center and of course a diaconate to help people with particular needs.
• Discipling and Leadership Development. Through classes and mentoring relationships, we help new Christians mature into servant-leaders in the church.
• Prayer ministries. Without prayer and reliance on God's grace, all of our strategies are hollow. We gather groups for prayer to seek God's face and praise him for what he has already done Coordination ministries: Sunday Service, Administration, Finance. Through these ministries, we support the overall work of the church by matching resources (people, skills, finances) with the best place for service.

Releasing
Releasing Servant-leaders within the City through:

• Marketplace ministry. Working with excellence and Christian distinctiveness in your vocation. Like Esther in scripture, we seek to exercise cultural leadership for Christ.
• Mercy ministry. Doing community development and social service. Like Nehemiah, we seek to reweave the physical and social fabric of the community.
• Church expansion ministries. Doing evangelism, discipling / education, and like Ezra, church renewal, and church planting both in San Francisco and worldwide.
