South Bend City Church began in 2016 when a core group started meeting and dreaming about a new Jesus-centered community. Our dream was to build a place for believers and doubters, where we can ask difficult questions and wrestle with the tensions of ancient faith in a modern world; a community that values simplicity and spiritual practices in our life together; and a church that’s deeply connected to the city we love. That dream has become a reality as we’ve moved into a home in South Bend’s historic Studebaker factory. We’re located in a diverse neighborhood in the heart of our city, and we’ve formed a
community of 400-500 people gathering each week. We’re an independent, non-denominational church. We trust the Bible as it points us to Jesus, and we trust the Apostles’ Creed as a guiding interpretation of what it teaches.
We believe that diversity among our leadership team is critical to our work as a community of faith, and we seek to recruit, develop, and retain the most talented people from a diverse candidate pool. To learn more about us, visit southbendcitychurch.com.
