Who We Are
At Mission City Church, we are called to engage people where they are with the gospel of Jesus Christ and lead them into lives of transformation. Our mission is at the center of everything we do – from our weekend worship services, our groups, and especially in the way we radically love people.
How to Connect
There are several ways to connect at Mission City Church:
- Worship – join us each week as we gather together to worship and hear a live message from the Bible. If you’re new, this is the best place to start!
- Groups – one of the ways to connect with other people at Mission City in a deeper way is through Groups. These range from Women’s and Men’s Bible Studies, LifeGroups, and Discipleship Groups.
- Serving – this is a great way to find like-minded people with similar skills and interests as you! From helping with kids, greeting, worship and media, and more, there is a place for everyone to jump in.

Campus Leadership
Our Campus Leadership is how Mission City Church is able to engage people where they are and be the church for different communities all over San Antonio. Each location has a Campus Pastor and a Campus Director overseeing ministry and staff at their campus.
Visit our Campus Page to find out more about Campus Leadership at each location.
Teaching Team
With multiple locations, we rotate a teaching team every week as part of our weekend services. This allows us to have live teaching each week and experience a variety of teaching styles. Under the leadership of Pastor Matt, the teaching team delivers the same message at each campus and, no matter which location you attend, it will always be focused on the Bible.
