Giving Toward a Gospel-Shaped Future Together 

God has been so good to City Parish over these last seven years. When we look back, all we can see is grace stacked upon grace—His steady hand guiding us, His provision meeting us, His people showing up at just the right moments. We are genuinely overwhelmed by the hundreds of individuals, families, and organizations who have prayed for us, encouraged us, and helped carry the weight of this work. None of this has happened in isolation. None of this has happened without the quiet, faithful generosity of the people of God.

And as the Lord continues to bring new individuals and families into the life of City Parish, we’re watching something beautiful unfold. We’re seeing people offer their gifts—skills, creativity, spiritual gifts, resources, finances—with a kind of joyful abandon that feels like early-church energy. Cheerful, sacrificial, hopeful giving. Not out of pressure, but out of worship. Not out of guilt, but out of a desire to participate in what Jesus is doing among us (2 Corinthians 9). It has been a supreme joy to witness this kind of Spirit-sparked generosity rise up in our church.

At the same time, we know that as a young church, humility is a long obedience in the same direction. Wisdom reminds us that we continue to walk this journey in partnership. We look to those who have run this path before us—women and men, churches and ministries who have faithfully proclaimed and embodied the gospel in their own cities. We have been held up by mentors, friends, and partners from near and far who have prayed fervently and given generously so that City Parish could grow strong and steady in this foundational season.

With that same spirit of humility and expectation, we simply invite you to pray. Pray about joining us and our ministry partners as we seek to see the gospel saturate our lives and our city—so that every man, woman, and child in Sonoma County might encounter Jesus in the rhythms of their everyday life. We believe this is possible. We believe Jesus delights to do it. And we would be honored to have you discern how God might weave your story into this unfolding work of renewal.
