Who We Are

CityPoint is a church plant in Urbandale with members and ministry reach throughout the Des Moines Metro, and a heart for service and sharing God’s story. Serving others is at the core of our church, building relationships with those around us – those who share our “Streets”, those places we frequent on a daily basis. CityPoint church strives to share the love of God in an open, welcoming way, inviting those who don’t know Him to learn more about His promise and their role in His Story.

While we are a church rooted in the Urbandale community, our Mission is to multiply. We are a sending church that hopes to grow God’s kingdom throughout the greater Des Moines area.

OUR MISSION:

Serving like Jesus, helping people discover their role in God’s story.
