God encourages his people to be a blessing to those around them. He even goes so far as to demand that we are to prosper the city that we live in! This is our chance to be the Church! Even with everything that’s going on in our world, we will NOT stop being the Church, and Prosper the City is a powerful way to make an impact for the Kingdom!

Teams can form in several ways. If you already know who you want to form a team with, you can go ahead and form your team! If you would like us to match you with a team, we will use the information that you provide to put you with people that are available the same times throughout the week that you are. After we pair you with a team, your Team Captain will contact you about your first meeting!

YES! Prosper the City is for the whole family, regardless of age! The hope is that you will join a team as a family, and even the kids’ voices will be heard and valued when planning your project! However, if a group of your child’s friends would like to do it together, that is ok too!

Each team will work together to come up with their own unique project! Now don’t stress about finding a project, the discussion guide that your Team Captain has is designed to make it as simple as possible. You will be surprised how your team’s project bubbles to the top!

No! We actually want to encourage you to keep your project close to where you and your teammates live! That way we are prospering the WHOLE city, not just certain parts of it. That being said, you may choose to Prosper the City anywhere!

You’ll meet 5 times with your group, once per week, for 60-90 minutes. On the project week, time will vary depending on the project.

There are no required skills! Each person in your team, including you, will have unique skills and passions that can go into your project, and so each person’s input will be meaningful and needed!

We have a Prosper the City discussion guide that each team will use. Each week comes with a video to set the stage, questions about the video, and then activities to help you accomplish that week’s goals. The first week you will do “asset mapping”, where you learn about the skills, passions, and connections that exist within your group. Week 2, you will use a point-based voting system to collectively select your project, and you will plan the details of the project. Week 3, you will finalize your plans and ensure everybody knows their roles in the project. Week 4, you execute your project together. Finally, week 5 is time for your team to celebrate!

We recognize that this process will be uncomfortable for many, and we think that’s ok! The last six months have pushed us all outside of our comfort zone against our will, and this is an opportunity to CHOOSE to do something out of your comfort zone for the betterment of your city! So join us as we all move outside of our comfort zones to Prosper the City!

The Mayo Clinic says that one of the best ways to improve your mental health is to “Look for ways to help your community.” Choosing to be a part of something larger than yourself and working with others to prosper your city will make a positive impact on you and your family!
