Connect and Grow in Community This Fall
This fall, we are excited to offer small groups meeting throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn. Together, we’ll dive into Miroslav Volf’s Public Faith in a Troubled Times, exploring what it means to live out faith in today’s complex society. Each week, we’ll watch a short video, followed by engaging discussions around the content.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of two new groups:
Gramercy Park
Lincoln Square
We also have spaces available in:
Upper West Side
Midtown East
Groups kick off the week of September 29th and will continue until Thanksgiving. Sign-ups begin this Sunday, September 8th. For more details, contact Alicia Divers, Pastor of Community and Mission, or sign up online!

We would love for you to get plugged into our community and one of the best ways to do that is by volunteering on Sunday Mornings (and beyond!). There are many ways to get involved including greeting, reading scripture, writing prayers, ushering, helping with Kid’s Ministry and beyond. If you’d like to volunteer, or hear more about volunteering at GSNY click the link below to fill out the volunteer form and someone will reach back out to you!

Digital Church, 11am ET
Good Shepherd New York continues to post weekly online gatherings. We know that many are still uncomfortable or unable to attend in-person gatherings and a wider community beyond New York has begun to engage. We continue to move toward each other through these digital gatherings, our digital kid’s program, and our other community initiatives. You can visit our YouTube channel at digitalchurch.nyc and spread the word!
If you live beyond NYC and are interested in joining a digital small group, please email Alex (alex@goodshepherdnewyork.com).
“Helping New Yorkers embody
the love of Christ for the good
of our neighbors.”
