Communities are the heartbeat of Citizens Church

Each Wednesday, our communities gather in homes around Bryan and College Station to share meals together, pray together, and study God’s word together.

1. Why Communities?

Jesus lived in community, and His call to follow Him is synonymous to living in community with other students of Jesus. The early church gathered regularly in homes to pray, study God’s word, share communion and care for one another. We see the picture of this kind of community in The New Testament in Acts 2:46, Acts 5:42, Acts 12:12, Acts 16:40, Acts 20:20, Romans 16:5, 1 Corinthians 16:19, Colossians 4:15 and Philemon 2. 

2. What is a Community?

Communities meet in homes and apartments across Bryan and College Station. Communities are intergenerational, geographic, and multiplying. Communities are where Family is formed. A Community shares meals together, prays together, and studies God’s word together. Community is the focal point for word and prayer, meal and mission.

A community is diverse. Communities are where life is built, life that’s shared together, breaking bread together, being fully known and fully loved. Community is where Discipleship happens, where the Apostles’ Teaching is studied. Communities are places of prayer. Communities are the frontline for benevolence, where we share with each other as each has need. Communities are the foundation of Citizens Church. Our prayer is that the result of Communities will be that God would add to His number daily those who are being saved (Acts 2:47).
