How You Can Help Soul City Church
I am moving to Chicago to BE a part of a movement.
Of’ course the movement is initially a selfish one.
I want more transformation in my life.
I feel like this is the community where the next stage of growth in my family’s life will happen.
Some people think I’m crazy.
But I’m just following the story that God has placed in my heart to lead my family with.
So with that, I feel confident in asking you guys to pray about contributing in some way to Soul City Church.
Not it’s not an orphanage.
No it’s not a women’s shelter.
No it’s not a teen crisis center.
But I think it will be ALL these things one day.
I believe in my pastors, Jarrett & Jeanne Stevens – they spent 12 years at Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, IL and 3 ½ years at North Point Community Church in Atlanta, GA.
I can only imagine that guy. Let’s call him Carlitos.
In the HUSTLE that is the city life of Chicago.
Hustle, sleep, play, hustle, sleep, play.
He puts his head down every night wanting that other thing.
But he can’t put his finger on it.
I can.
Meaning.
Transformation.
Community.
I think this community could be the one he’s been dreaming about and we aren’t even there yet.
There are lots of things that the church needs to get rolling…one would be to create a gathering space where we can communicate the transformational message of Jesus Christ.
You know I’m all about environments.
It’s what I do.
Here is my ask.
If you have resources at the end of the year that you are looking to give away for any reason…
I simply ask that you pray about providing for the Start of a new church at the End of your year.
Your gift will help install sound, lighting and video systems that will be used to create authentic weekend experiences that speak right to the heart of that hustler I was talking about earlier. Carlitos

RAIN IT DOWN
Thanks for this.
The more I hear about Soul City Church the more I wish I was in a position to move up there and be a part of it. I wish we had something to give to help get it started. Right now all I can do is pray, and pray I shall.
I will also have to pop up to Chi-town from Indy someday to check it out!
At the very least you will have my prayers during this transition. God bless you for stepping out like this.
Man, all I’m sayin’ is that I’m jealous! You guys are going to have an amazing time in Chi-town.
Represent Jesus and all his love!
There’s been tinkering in my heart for the past year or so now as to whether or not I should part with my church for just something more. Possibly ‘joining a movement?’ Since hearing, reading and watching about Soul City, that tinkering has only increased in volume!! I’m from the Chi-city burbs and might just be joining in this movement.
I’m ecstatic and can’t wait for next year!! I’ve been and will continue to be praying for you and the fam, Chicago and Soul City.
Real excited about Soul City! Hopefully I’ll be able to give something soon.
Los,
Do you have a list of the people moving to Chicago? I know several people involved, just curious. Wanna pray for you all as much as possible.
this looks cheesy. i don’t know a single person in chicago who would keep a straight face at this place. maybe moody students, but they’re already going to the acts 29 churches. so maybe you can start a bidding war with them…
