What is Church in the City?

One of MDPC’s Advantage Goals is to serve together in the city one Sunday a year. Outreach is an important part of our life as a church family, and we want to serve our city well for Christ. This will be a day for us to worship God and to serve those whom Christ has called us to serve.
Registration is required (except for home projects). Project details and links to register are below.

Is there childcare?

Each project has age guidelines in order to insure that projects are meaningful for everyone participating. Kids’ Meals bag decorating in the Summit Room is appropriate for ages 2+ if your child is excited about participating. Children 4+ should register for age-appropriate projects.
Free childcare:
Saturday, 9:45am-1pm • 3 months-10 years old • By reservation only (click here)
Sunday, 8:00am-1pm • 3 months-3 years old • No reservation required

Do I need to wear a Church in the City T-Shirt?

CITC T-shirts are encouraged for all participants but not required. The design is carrying over from 2024 (navy blue shirts). A limited number of shirts will be available for purchase for $10 (cash – exact change only, check, or QR code). Feel free to wear past year's CITC T-shirt, too!

Thank you!

What else do I need to bring?

Please try not to bring purses and other items to project sites as safe storage is limited. Leave as much as you can at home.

What about the offering for that Sunday?

We will have offering boxes in the Parlor hallway and CLC lobby, or you can give online at give.mdpc.org.

Is there a cost?

There is no registration fee for CITC.

What about transportation to off-site locations?

Participants provide their own transportation to all locations. We encourage carpooling from home or from MDPC!

Will lunch or breakfast be provided?

No, we will not provide breakfast or lunch, but snacks and drinks will be available in the Amphitheater hallway and on location at off-campus projects.

What if I have more questions?

Please contact Julie LaRue at jlarue@mdpc.org or Charlotte Adams at cadams@mdpc.org.
