New to the city? Looking for friends, faith, or a meaningful connection? You’re not alone - you’re welcome here!
CityServe is a monthly gathering for young adults in their 20s and 30s who want to show up for their city, build genuine friendships, and explore new corners of Houston together. We’ll serve side by side, then grab lunch at a local spot to keep the conversation going and deepen connections.
