South Bend City Church is a place of grace and peace for our community and the world. While SBCC exists for both our in-person and online communities, city context is an essential part of who we are as a church.
Have a question? Let us know
We commit to helping SBCC members better see and respond to their community. There is power when everyone comes together around a shared purpose. We love to unite our attention, energy, and resources for our city, especially those most vulnerable.
Place matters.
We recognize the importance of the places we find ourselves. Whether with neighbors or coworkers, shared location develops collective needs & celebrations. As a church, we look for opportunities to bring people from shared locations to live & serve together.
Let us know if you are interested in becoming a neighborhood captain!
Some things we can only do together.
There is power when everyone comes together around a shared purpose. We love to unite our attention, energy, and resources for our city, especially those most vulnerable.
We pursue affordable housing solutions, support our South Bend public schools, and create great events that celebrate our city.
Neighbors without borders.
Our desire to be good neighbors is not limited by fences or borders. We seek God’s goodness across the globe by prioritizing peace-making in a world in conflict. We partner with the Telos Group, an organization that helps form and equip communities of peacemakers to help heal intractable conflict. Peacemaking pilgrimages are becoming part of our global involvement.
We are partnering with Neighbor to Neighbor to form communities of support to help our new neighbors adjust to life in South Bend.
Listen as we discuss becoming a place of grace and peace for our world.
Through partnering with several community groups in the areas of education, refugee establishment, and affordable housing, we are committed to being a church for our city. Let us know you are interested in getting involved or providing financial support by emailing info@southbendcitychurch.com.

In addition we are developing a mutual learning relationship with Redeemer Central of Belfast Northern Ireland. We support The Long Table initiative, and have lots to learn from our friends there about open doors and long tables.
Our Facebook Collective group is a place where anyone in our church community can invite others to join them in community projects, volunteering, social events — if it’s positive and you’re a part of it, use the collective to share it with others.
