A Note from Pastor Roger

Dear Church Family,

With just under a week left in the Houston school year, summer break is nearly here—and we’re kicking off the season this Sunday with our Summer at CityRise sermon series! Over the next several weeks, we’ll journey through the first book of the New Testament, the Gospel of Matthew.

We know summer can be full of travel, activities, and unexpected adventures—but no matter where your plans take you, you can stay connected through our updated Summer at CityRise page at cityrise.org/summer.

This refreshed page is your go-to hub for:

• Weekly sermon uploads
• Calendars for events, registrations, and mission trips
• Links to the latest church happenings
• A way to share your own summer photos and videos to be featured during worship services!

You can also access it anytime through the CityRise app by tapping the summer button.

We’re thrilled to have so many international mission teams heading out this summer to share the love and truth of Jesus around the world! Please keep them in your prayers as they deploy and serve. Let’s lift them up as they boldly carry the Gospel to the nations.

You can see which countries we’re headed to and when on the Global Missions page.

I’m excited for everything God has in store for us this summer—whether you're on campus or following along from wherever your summer takes you. Let’s stay connected, encouraged, and expectant together.

Have a great weekend, Church Family!


Stay Expectant,
Pastor Roger
