Two Services Starting Back Up on Sunday, September 7th

Starting this Sunday, September 7th, we will be getting back into our regular schedule with our 9:30am and 11am services. See you there!

Do You Want to Join Our Small Group Leadership Team?

The GSNY team is seeking passionate leaders for our fall small groups taking place from late September to Thanksgiving. We have two key roles available:

Host
Open your home to provide a warm meeting place where our group can share meals and fellowship. As a host, you'll organize weekly meals and prepare your space for our gatherings.

Facilitator
Encourage engaging, thoughtful dialogue around our spring curriculum—no teaching expertise is necessary. Your role is to create a welcoming environment for conversation and community.

If you're interested in exploring these opportunities, please get in touch with Alicia Divers, our Pastor of Community and Mission. We aim to have leaders in place by the end of August.

Afternoon in the Park – Sunday, September 21st

After the 11 AM service, we’re heading to Madison Square Park for a relaxed afternoon together. Bring a blanket, grab some lunch (or order from Shake Shack!), and join us in the central green area. No agenda—just sunshine, connection, and good company. Friends, kids, and newcomers are always welcome.
