Come as You Are
At City Lights Church, you are welcome to come as you are. Whether you are dressed casually or formally, we want you to feel comfortable and at ease as you join us in worship. We believe that God accepts us as we are, and we aim to reflect that same love and acceptance to each person who walks through our doors.
Parking
Free parking is available every Sunday in the upper lot next to the church—feel free to ignore any signs about paid parking. You’re also welcome to park in the lower lot behind the church or across the street at Ipanema.
Worship Service
Our worship service is centered around encountering God through prayer, singing, Scripture, and Communion. We lift our hearts in prayer, sing together, and hear a biblically-rooted message that speaks to everyday life. Every Sunday, we also share in Communion, meeting Jesus at the table. Worship for us isn’t just a Sunday event—it’s a way of life, and we invite you to join us in experiencing God’s presence together.
