City Director Julie Stephenson

Dear CityTeam Partners,

Over the past 12 months we’ve seen our economy plummet into a recession. Yet I’ve been so impressed by our community. So many of our neighbors are handling the tough times with real dignity.

I have seen many who have taken this time to reassess what they really want to do in life, returning to school, volunteering more and encouraging others facing hardships. We all have our down days. But it’s heartening to watch a community come together.

CityTeam continues to do our part by meeting the needs of the poor and destitute. Often we’re asked to help a family help their neighbors. What a blessing. CityTeam has the opportunity to provide food, clothes and household items to help individuals bless others in their community.

Sometimes helping a neighbor means sharing your own food, helping clean a house, or watching kids. I pray that you’ll help your neighbors through CityTeam as well.

In His Name,


Julie A Stephenson
Northwest Regional Director
