Collaborative Solutions

CityNet Ministries’ brokers partnerships between urban churches, as well as with suburban churches, to help identify practical needs and collaborative solutions. It is about churches and communities caring holistically for one another around Philadelphia.

Resources are far more than material possessions.  Resources include time, talents and the sharing of Christ’s love both in word and deed.  It is beyond the ability of any one church or organization to respond to all the social, economic, and spiritual needs of the city.  Collectively we can make a difference.
