Relationships that Impact…
We believe in the Great Commission (Matt 28:18) and desire to be witnesses to our encounter with the power of the Holy Spirit to all peoples near and far (Acts 1:8). We are a sending church, not a supporting church. Our Executive Outreach Team (EOT) walks with our Ministry Partners (MPs) from God’s first calling on their lives to retirement and beyond. City Hill desires to be faithful to equip the saints (Eph 4:12) to fulfill God’s purpose on their lives. Whether regional or international, that involves not only financial and prayer support, but logistics, preparation, training, communication, and dedication to God’s work through each MP.
And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”- Luke 10:2
