Multiethnic Worship Gatherings

Heart of the City Ministries facilitates regular, large worship gatherings, both inner-city and suburban called Heart of the City Worship Celebrations. We also bring the multi-racial Heart of the City Worship Band into individual Christian congregations on Sundays to present a message and model of racial and denominational unity. The Heart of the City Band also joins in other city-wide events sponsored by other organizations in order to lend our gifts in cooperative service with others.
