The City Mission team love walking alongside people on their journey towards wellness and thriving. The Introduction to Computers course runs all year round -- and is about much more than computers!

John 10:10: "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

Hebrews 6:19 says: "We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure."

🎉 Celebrating Achievements! 🎉

We are so proud of two of our young men who have been journeying with us since 2023 through City Mission. Today, they’ve completed their Barista Training Course 👨🏾‍🍳☕ — a big step toward finding employment and building a brighter future! 🙌🏽

This milestone is not just a certificate, but a symbol of growth, perseverance, and hope. 🌱💪🏾
We thank God for His faithfulness, and for our amazing partners who help make opportunities like this possible. 🤝

🙏🏾 “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”
— Proverbs 16:3

🌟 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
— Jeremiah 29:11

We’re always looking for more opportunities and affordable courses for those we walk alongside. If you know of any organizations offering training or development programs, please inbox us — let’s work together to uplift our communities! ❤️🏙️
