JOIN US FOR OUR ANNUAL CITYLIGHT FAMILY CONFERENCE
OCTOBER 21-22, 2026
CITYLIGHT OMAHA WEST
We are a FAMILY with regular rhythms. One of these rhythms is our annual MULTIPLY Conference. Once a year we ALL gather to celebrate what God has done through our family, to worship together and to equip one another in practical ways. Join us for our sixth MULTIPLY! This is a 24 hour/2 day event that helps provide alignment, vision and ongoing connection and fellowship for those in our Citylight Family of Churches.
We have crafted this conference specifically for the pastors, elders, staff members, residents, church planters, missionaries, and spouses of the Citylight Family. This year’s theme is OUR LIVING HOPE. We will journey together through the book of 1 Peter.
Don’t miss out on the SWAG and meals — Register before October 1st.
CITYLIGHT FAMILY
The Citylight Family is made up of autonomous churches that share the same DNA, vision, and values. Each church has their own budget, elders and contextualized ministry philosophy. Yet, each church within the Citylight Family has shared values and a shared vision. We’re a family that’s all about Jesus. We love Jesus. We worship Jesus. We preach and lift up the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. We’re a family that’s co-laboring toward a vision to multiply disciples, churches and church planting movements!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where will this event be?
Citylight Omaha – West will be hosting this year’s conference! 3401 Oak View Dr, Omaha, NE 68144
What about Child Care?
We are unable to provide on-site child care but do deeply value families and spouses being able to attend. Therefore, kids are welcomed to join us for all main sessions. Additionally, if hiring a baby sitter is a financial barrier for your family, we would love to provide you with a voucher up to $100 to help subsidize the cost. We understand this may not cover all of your expenses but do hope that it expresses our desire to allow spouses to participate at some level.
If you would like to request financial help, please indicate it on your registration. Register for voucher before October 8th. One voucher per family.
Will there be time to connect with people who serve in similar roles?
YES! We will host a meal Wednesday evening and we invite you to connect with people across the Family. Thursday grab an early breakfast and/or lunch with others in your similar ministry. One of the strengths of being a part of this Family is that we can learn from and be encouraged by others who are laboring in similar roles within a local church context.
Will we worship together?
Jesus is worthy of our praise! God has been exceedingly good and gracious to us and we need to bless, worship and praise Him! We will have regular times of worship built into our conference lead by a collection of our worship leaders!
Why would I come when I am really busy?
We get it. This is an investment of time and energy and there are lots of things pulling for your attention. We’re laboring to make sure this is a great use of your time. The past four years we have seen tangible evidence of people being encouraged, equipped and connected to new people and refreshed to do God’s Kingdom work. We, as the Citylight Family Board, are praying for God to minister to you, to encourage you, and to use this time together to fill you with fresh faith for what God may want to do in and through you and your local church. Please join us in praying for the Spirit of God to move while we are together. What we need is Jesus and His presence and power to minister to us, His people!
