Mission Team  

The Mission Team coordinates the “outward” face of City Line Church, bolstering both the congregation as well as its partner organizations in the work of loving Philadelphia and the world as ambassadors of God’s purposes in Jesus Christ. The team encourages and supports both local and global partner organizations and occasionally organizes short-term trips.

College Ministry Team

SAT Prep MInistry  

The SAT & College Prep Ministry is an integral part of City Line’s missional efforts in serving our neighbors in Upper Darby, with the goal of serving high school students - primarily 10th and 11th graders - both educationally and spiritually. The ministry leverages City Line’s educational resources and in collaboration with Upper Darby Ministry to serve neighborhood youth and their families as they prepare for higher education.

In addition to weekly SAT study & practice sessions, activities including college and financial aid applications, career panel discussion or counseling, and campus visits are conducted throughout the year. The ministry also instills in students core life skills like hard work, responsibility and punctuality, which will be essential as they transition into college and grow into adults.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
If interested, please contact Tommy Kumpf for more information.

The Projection Team  

The Projection Team helps to guide the congregation through the flow of our worship service by producing and projecting slides for songs and other responsive liturgical parts.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
If you are interested in joining the team (no prior experience or technical expertise required!), please contact Stephen Burns.

Welcome Ministry  

A warm smile and a kind greeting on Sundays is the best part of the Welcome Ministry's job! City Line has become the home church for many people because Sunday worship feels like you are coming to worship with family. It’s a privilege to be able to usher individuals into our community, and the Welcome Ministry takes joy in knowing that our little ways of caring for our spiritual family has an impact!

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
Welcome Ministry is a fantastic way to get to know and serve all of our City Line brothers and sisters. We ask for a commitment of welcoming one or two Sundays per month. If you are interested, please contact David Fuller.

Mercy & Justice Team

The Mercy and Justice Team seeks to equip the saints of City Line to learn more about and to grow in works of mercy and justice in their own spheres of influence. We also organize the church to collectively engage in mercy and justice efforts, such as providing meals for Germantown Community Fridge, fostering recycling practices within our church community, and supporting refugees.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Chelsea Tam.

Abuse Prevention Team

The Abuse Prevention Team is a group of men and women charged with aiding the work of the Session in creating a healthy church culture at CLC. Members of the Abuse Prevention Team form a distinct and separate group from the Session. Our primary goal is to facilitate a safe environment for members of our church community through preventative measures like education and policy improvements. We are also prepared to receive reports of abuse and provide support for those who may not wish to bring their complaints to the Session. All members of the team are mandated reporters.

How to contact us: To share questions, concerns, or to report a complaint, please contact us at reportabuse@citylinechurch.net

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
  • Team members are nominated by members of the church and approved by the Session.
  • You can support us with your prayers for discernment, humility, and compassion for all involved in the sensitive and difficult process of navigating abuse. 
Worship & Praise Ministry  

Worship & Praise Ministry works to enhance the corporate worship of our Lord through Christ-centered, passionate songs of worship as well as worship in its various forms.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
We are blessed to have a number of very gifted leaders, musicians, vocalists, sound engineers and multimedia savvy sisters and brothers serving together. However, we are always looking for more members to not only serve with us, but to also learn more about what it means to lead people into the worship of our Lord. If you are at all interested in learning more about serving in this capacity, please do not hesitate to contact Tom Loyd.
