Terri Rice I look for excellent teaching and strong community in a church and found both here at City Church. Every week I am blessed by a clear word from scripture. There is time to get to know others on Sunday, but the best way is through the various community groups. Here is where you begin to see the church in action. Loving each other and together, loving the surrounding community. So happy God has placed us at City Church!

The Gamer Dad For the first time I feel completely connected with God since I have been attending. I have gone to other great churches but I always felt different until I started attending City Church. This is my home now where I can fellowship with good Christian people who dont pass their judgement on my and welcome me with open arms. Thank you for providing me with a family environment to worship our Lord every week

Лиза Фещенок beautiful church, friendly people!

екатерина Тумашенко beautiful church, wonderful people and a wise pastor.

Beth Hall I went to school here in the early to mid 70s when it was St. Patricks. I remember prayer, morning mass, Father Tremblay and Sister Rita. There were many great sisters and lay teachers. Trips to pick apples, playing in the school yard, CYO on 1st Street run by Mrs. Hennessy. So many memories!❤️

Ramon Luis Santos Lopez Good place to be. It is one of a few churches open in Albany, N.Y. It is. Catholic Church. When the Christian Faith is vanishing across New York State, at the Our Lady of the Americas Roman Catholic Church, it is like the faith is striving. It is of matter of time that a miracle will happens.

Cindy Madigan I love this church, Our Lady of the Americas is close to you.

Ross Sudeep (TamilRascal) **If you find my review helpful, please click on the LIKE button - thank you!** Beautiful church, tucked away in Guilderland. As you can see from the pictures, the garden is immaculately maintained. Inside, the sanctuary has amazing architecture - I never get tired of looking at it! We often stop by for a few minutes of silent prayer/reflection and to light a candle. Just a wonderful place ❤️

Amol Joge Beautiful church and early childhood center. All the staff is very friendly and good neighborhood.

DeMarie Rossi I grew up in this Church and left the Catholic faith to become non-denominational due to the corrupt ways of Father Hart in the early 70’s. His witness for the faith was horrible. I hope the years have changed the culture here.

Rob D Beautiful sermons, beautiful church, fantastic chior, these guys go above and beyond to make new comers feel welcome. There is a real community within.

Peter Flierl We attended on Sunday morning and absolutely loved the sermon by a lay pastor. Coffee hour afterwards was open and delightful. Have a family connection from decades ago.

Luke Toole TLM

Cathy Laverty This is my parish Church I have been going there I have been going there since I was born I have had all of my sacraments there communion confirmation to my marriage and I will be buried at the church very very humble and cherish

Panchita DeAlbany Honestly …do not think I have ever written a review on purpose. In fact do not really see myself as a person that addresses their thoughts in a public manner. In the craziness of the world, and the state of some people lives at this moment..those that are sick ..those that have lost their jobs .. those that have lost loved ones.. those that are struggling with mental illness..I have learned to PRAY..and…PRAY..and..PRAY .. I have learned to read scripture and even if I don’t always understand it. I learned to seek to understand.. my life has been soooo much easier… even when it was hard… I say all this to say.. EMPIRE CHRISTIAN CENTER… it’s Pastors .. Tre and Christina… it’s people that have dedicated their lives to growing in the word.. have guided me …inspired me.. and by choice I am grounded in HIM. This month is our prayer and fasting month every year we work through a workbook.. together we live through the word ..guided through this eloquently written and thoughtful workbook… and TOGETHER.. we rise not alone not separated.. not straying to our own agendas.. but TOGETHER.. Our Pastors and friends make this possible each year.. and we grow..individually because of it..this is what church is about..strong leaders that equip us to live strong lives .. and a congregation full of dedicated servants all growing in the word..10 plus stars ❤️

Princess Good What an Awesome worship experience from the radical praise and worship to the solid, sound teaching/preaching of the Word of God!! If youre looking for a place to worship freely and hear the Word without the fluff, this is the place to be! Here, its not about religion, its about relationship and you can truly come as you are!!

Michiko Mitchell If you are in the area and are looking for a church home you have to visit The E! I attended several worship experiences while I was in NY and I felt right at home. The presence of God is definitely there. I love Pastor Tre and Pastor C. If I moved to NY this would be my church home.

Julie Gulick Victory always is doing outreachs, gun buybacks, just gave out Easter baskets to girls & boys homes, same for Christmas. Victorys congregation is always willing to help with anything that deals w/homeless & hungry. Wonderful church!

Lewis Snearly Small local church. Family-oriented. The pastors sermon can make you think about your relationship with God.

M M My daughter & grandson attend this church & whenever I visit, I go with them. The presence of God is felt during Praise & Worship. The Holy Spirit is in this place. I just wish that Praise & Worship was longer!!

Wendell Harnsberry Showed Up expecting! God doesnt disappoint. 2 captures today. One is supernatural. Both captures should have been Praise Team. Amazing God.

zel hamid My first time at liberty church i love it The ceremony was great

Lauren Williams This is a church of the community, and I can appreciate that. New to the area, went to Sunday morning 10am service, and I felt like I left as a member of the family, fulfilled. Choir sang beautifully, and the preacher had a good message! I’ve since been back to visit, and experienced the same.

Milt Matt Very pleasant and rewarding life saving experience. Great ushers like Kenny, Abe, and parishioners like Renée and Harold. No pressure services, clean and spacious.

Milt Matthews Nice old time services. Very friendly congregation and ministers. With Covid19 loitering around, the services are now on YouTube and Facebook. Still great messages and strong feeling of "Being" there.

Denia Buffalo I have so many good things to say about this Pastor and his First lady. The church family, my mother loved dearly. They are amazing people not just people of God but loving caring people. They are amazing. They care about each and every one who walks through the door of the church and outside of it. I thank them all so much for being there for me and my family in our time of need

Jeannette Mastan Kyea Absolutely the nicest people and excited to be visiting. I love the mission statement I love what this church does for the community.

Patia Henry Friendly atmosphere, very welcoming to all. Pastor Dave Preisinger gives thought-provoking and meaningful sermons, which often incorporates current events. There is a nice childrens program, the worship music is wonderful, and there is a nice coffee hour after service. God is in the midst of everything here. **update: Pastor Dave has retired, and our new (2020) pastor is Rev. Dr. Rahel Hahn. She is really wonderful. Im writing this review in 2024, so I have many years on which to base my review. She is kind, wise, fun, and has a good heart. She delivers a great sermon full of insight. We have been together through Covid and all the restrictions, all the difficulties, and change. She has stood the test of time. This church is full of the presence of God. Small, but loving and caring. I encourage you to come and check us out! Stay for refreshments after service and friendship. All are welcome here.

Paul Rees-Rohrbacher A good welcome and music. This churchs mission to the community is a plus.
