Does not wisdom cry out? . . . Beside the gates leading into the city, at the entrances, she cries aloud. Proverbs 8: 1a and 3
History: City’s Gate PCA formed in 1997 in response to the vision of several couples who felt led by God to start a church within the city limits of Harrisburg. The early mission of the church was to interact with city residents during daily life and cultural events, such as open mic nights, poetry readings, etc. There was also an emphasis on establishing prayer cells in city neighborhoods. The goal was for members to love their neighbors and allow Christ to work through them to spiritually revitalize the city. This focus has broadened since the inception of the church, but there remains a strong emphasis on developing relationships and meeting diaconal needs both within the congregation and throughout Harrisburg and the surrounding communities.
