Welcome to Indy, Phil. We're glad you're here.

Yesterday a collection of pastors and ministry leaders welcomed Pastor Phil Edwards as he moves his family here from Atlanta... to help the CityChurch Partnership grow a 'Hope For Indianapolis' compassion ministry.


Pastor Phil Edwards

Phil shared his life story with the group. When he was only ten years old, his alcholic father was murdered in a street-related incident. Phil got a pistol and vowed revenge, but God had different plans. Phil came to Christ and was mentored by a Christian in a work program for inner-city teens. He saw first-hand the value of life-on-life discipleship... later becoming a pastor himself.

Phil's story has been written up in a number of places, including this article in ByFaith Magazine.

What's the CityChurch Indy Partnership?

"As a partnership of churches and ministries in greater Indianapolis, we are committed to advancing the Kingdom together by offering hope to people through planting healthy churches, helping churches to thrive and meeting the needs of the poor, orphan, widow and alien."

IndyChristian Ed. Note...
Welcome to Indy, Phil. We hope you and your family enjoy the city as much as we do, and that God will bless the city as a result of increasingly pulling churches together who want to make a difference in the name of Christ.

Everyone... Imagine if you were new to the city and wanted to 'plug-in'. Where might you turn, online, to find an overview of the Great Commission going on collaboratively here in Greater Indianapolis? The 'Wiki Encyclopedia of CityReaching' aspires to provide that very kind of information... and linking off to the best ministries in the city. Here are the Indianapolis pages so far.
