Citylight is a church community in Roanoke, VA - "The Star City of the South." Roanoke's most notable landmark is the world's largest freestanding star in the world - Mill Mountain Star that overlooks the city and valley below. Every night Roanoke's cityscape is illumined by the downtown citylights and the neon glows of Mill Mountain Star - a visual reminder of how light overcomes the darkness.

Citylight is about Jesus. Jesus declares, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."  (John 8.12). In the extreme cosmic makeover to come, there will be no sun or moon, but rather Jesus will be the constant illumination for God’s glorious and eternal city (Rev. 21-22, Isa. 60). Both in this world and the world to come, Jesus is the one true cityLight.

Citylight is about following Jesus. Jesus says to those who follow Him, "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. (Matt. 5.14-16). In this we find both our name and our mission, for Jesus calls us to be citylights in our homes, in this city and into the world.

We invite you to join us for Sunday worship as we gather at the Dumas Center (downtown on the north end of 1st St. footbridge near the Martin Luther King Jr. statue). Find us on Google Maps using 108 1st St., Roanoke, VA 24016, but the physical street sign is Henry St.

We also gather through the week in city groups. City groups are home-based, city-focused communities of people that gather to share life and truth, love God and one another, and engage the social and spiritual needs of our city.
