2025 Year in Review
A Glimpse of What God Did Through You
Woodstock City Church Family,
As I look back at 2025, I am blown away and humbled by all that God did through our church. Lives were transformed and stories changed forever. Every single Sunday was someone’s first Sunday at our church. And I want you to know that Woodstock City Church would not be what it is without you!
Because of your partnership, we created spaces of belonging, invested in the faith of the next generation, impacted the community, and inspired people of all ages and backgrounds to follow Jesus. A personal highlight for me was our first-ever Baptism Sunday, where we baptized 30 people!
So, here is a look at what happened in our church and through your investment in the life and mission of Woodstock City in 2025.
As you browse this report, remember that each number you’ll see represents a name, each name represents a story, and every story matters to God.
With gratitude in our hearts for what God has done, we look forward in faithful expectation to all that God will do in 2026.
Thanks for being salt and light.
Thanks for being difference makers.
Thanks for being Woodstock City Church.
Love y’all.

Baptism
“I belong to Jesus and this is my victory cry… depression did not win, my past does not define me, and trauma does not hold me captive.
I stand here today… celebrating not only my redemption but God's healing in all of us. I rise… free, redeemed, and ready to walk with the unshakable joy in the life he has promised.”
– Kelsey
