Yohanes Frezgi I joined Bridge in 2022. Before joining, I hadnt attended church regularly for over twenty years. At the time, I wasnt looking for a church and only came after being invited at the end of a party. When I went, it was transformational for me. I found a community for myself and my daughter and eventually met my future wife there. If someone is looking for a place to build their faith or just curious about who God is, I would highly recommend visiting on a Sunday or Wednesday.

Matthew Tolodziecki This church has been such a blessing to me and my wife from the first moment we walked through the door. I were in desperate need of a loving and caring community and we found one here. There is an authenticity and humility that the pastor carries that trickles down to all of the members as well. I see us staying and serving here for a long time.

Nicholas T Francis The presence of God in this place will change your life. Come and experience a mighty move of God in the prophetic and word. Your life will never be the same.

NancyLiatsis I find the experience at Gateway to be like a cozy living room. Its very welcoming and down to earth. The pastor make a great effort to bring the people into a genuine faith experience. No pretenses. God is accessible and relevant.

K T Amazing teachings and amazing people! You can feel the presence of God in this place.

Carl Petter Opsahl St. Lydia is a relatively small Lutheran community in Brooklyn. Every Sunday and Monday they celebrate Dinner worship, an eucharistic meal with songs and prayers. There is an low key, welcoming atmosphere here that makes you at home. The meals are delicious, and the people working there are wonderful.

Alicia F A wonderfully soulful experience that is sure to feed you in more ways than one. Its an intimate church experience centered around a shared dinner meal, call-and-response singing, prayer, sermon and discussion. Truly amazing!

Sandrine J We hosted our son’s birthday at this venue and it was absolutely perfect. Debbie was very flexible and accommodating, the space had a homey feel and did not need a lot of decoration to set up the party. I will definitely rent the space again for future events!

Matthew Kern An honest and authentic place to seek God, Forefront is a safe place in a crazy city. This is somewhere I can invite ANY of my friends to church and be confident they’ll have a positive experience. No church is perfect, but this one comes close.

Kai Sarah Ngu Great progressive evangelical church. Lgbt-affirming, theologically rigorous, with big emphasis on community--mostly lots of young families and people in their thirties and twenties.

Michal Richardson my name is Michael Richardson, and I been to the church once and will return, the people were nice friendly, I loved the environment. Michael

Bible led church for sermons and prayer meetings. The church members are supportive and friendly. There are lots of groups to support parishioners, from family groups to singles this church covers it all.

Joseph Joju Bible believing and spiritually sound worship place. Come and see for yourself.

Jency Mgml Ive been there for their food pantry. generous and friendly.

Victor Olaore Omoshehin Celestial Church of Christ Queens Parish is a beautiful place to worship. I was first here in June 2016. The shepherd welcome me like a respective Celestial elder. I was given the sermon for that day and I least expected it, but it was great time. Despite the fact that I was wearing ordinary 4 corners, the shepherd was highly spiritual and knows what he is doing. I felt like a real celestial and was proud being one. The Shepherd gave me the greatest gift I have ever received in my life which was his personal bible and an Hymn Book. The members were all receptive and very accommodating to me. My experience was really impressive and I will recommend this Parish to any members of Celestial who is visiting New York City to visit Queens Parish at Elton Street, Brooklyn and worship with them.

Syma OConnell Able to sit outside on a bench n pray to the lord n noone bathers you..

Catherine Salazar I love this church. They have a great pastor who cares for the youth and really great youth ministers. As for CCD they have improved. You should try to visit this parish.

Lisa Monaco Was here for a funeral. It was fine, but I found it very odd they chose to use yellow caution tape to block off rows instead of just plain masking tape. It was in poor taste for a funeral.

Phoebe Yarbray I really enjoyed myself. The secretary is a really sweet humble and authentic person. She showed our cast so much love.

Yerika Wood 10/10 Sunday church days are a lesson.

Bro. Will I love the Bishop,pastor and entire congregation. I feel really at home. I decided to join last Sunday Dec. 15, 2019. Now I have a new church home and family. And its a beautiful historical church inside and out. Im very privileged to have Pastor Joseph Clemmons as my leader.

M Atienzasis simplicity screaming! An impressing Catholic art & house of worship that demands respect, attendees are structured and organized, vigil Service for feast of St.Anthony, displays 1st class relics of skin & floating rib, touring the USA 2024 from Padua,Italy

Nicchitta Anthony This church feels like a family. Its great to see the young students participating in mass how it used to be when I was their age. These values are important to keep going with our ever-changing community!

Joseph L. Cinematographer/Photographer Beautiful church, very clean...Very high cathedral ceiling...wondering to enjoy, antique..an old style church you will not ever see made today because it would be astronomical in price, great wedding choice

Angie Giordano Its a beautiful church.and it has a beautiful garden and benches.where you can sit and pray my grandsons go to religious instructo ns every Wednesday and are receiving holy Communion on May 2

Nancy What a beautiful church! We were there for funeral mass.

Jack Sica The best church in Dyker Heights, its also a Catholic school academy. My favorite church in the neighborhood with a big following.

Marie Vails This is very good church both Is pastors are very good preaches!! What u dont understand they, break it down. Im really trying to stay Focus every sunday.

Gayle McVay A truly wonderful and welcoming church. The gospel singing was so powerful and beautiful. Not a dry eye. Fantastic sermon - perfect delivery and anchored in biblical teaching. The only thing is that I couldn’t work out (from the website) exactly when the Christmas Eve and New Year’s services were. Saying ‘hours differ’ is confusing and upsetting when I so much want to enjoy the services again whilst visiting. Can someone give good, clear times please? You’re doing a great job.

Hazel Gibbons Emmanuel offers extremely good spiritual education. The pastors help you to grow in the Lord and His Truth. Yesterday at the eleven oclock service, Minister Vito was tremendous in his sermon "Love Yourself". It made me think about my negative actions towards others, and pointed to the fact that, I do not love myself. I needed that word from God because recently I have been doing things that I am not proud of but couldnt really figure out what was going on with me.

Dave R My home church. Nice atmosphere. Great priests and deacons. Great piano/organ player. The priest always call people up if its your birthday, a visitor, celebrating an anniversary or doing any kind of long distance traveling so he can bless you. This happens towards the end of church.

Miguel Vasquez I had a wonderful experience the priest homily was awesome and the Choir did a fantastic job. I am from Belize City, Belize and the parish that I go to has the same name. I hope to visit sometime in the near future.

Andre Vialet Our Lady of Victory RC Church and St Martin de Porres Parish have merged and share the Throop Avenue location. This is a church building that was built some 150 years ago. When you visit this church, you will appreciate the workmanship. The church community is rich in its spiritual history.

rossi kissoon I’ve been searching for a church for the past few months, and last Sunday, I finally visited V1 for the first time. I went alone and was a little nervous, but from the moment I walked in, I was warmly welcomed. It felt as if I had known everyone there for years, and more importantly, I truly felt the presence of God in that place. I’m so grateful to have found a church that accepts me just as I am. Highly recommend!

Joy Elisabeth Meekins Came for prayer because I thought this was an anointed, Spirit Filled church based on a podcast I heard about the apostle who planted V1. Couldn’t even finish the service because the camera people were EXTREMELY distracting. Why on earth would I want the intimacy of my worship to be filmed - without my permission, posted, and distributed to the masses? Why are cameras in our face the ENTIRE service with no pause? Why is there a camera person attached to the foot of the platform for the entire service - literally standing in front of people trying to hear the sermon?! Surely the Lord can build his church without a constant fan club generated by incessant camera footage. Put the cameras away, honor the sanctity of worship, let people have their time with God in some semblance of privacy. Will never return and if I hear anyone interested, I’ll warn them as well to make sure they are ready to be publicized and constantly interrupted and intruded upon by the bombarding cameras. Also- there’s a bag check and a security wand like you’re getting on a flight before entering. So invasive.

Jeremy Hammer I watched a few videos of the pastor before attending in person. The venue is nice inside (warehouse area of Brooklyn) and clearly a lot of caring people there seeking to serve others. Messages carry deep insight from the Holy Spirit which is awesome and rare to find imo. Great especially for believers looking for deeper insight and to grow closer to God through a biblical and spiritual understanding of Him. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area or even passing through on a given Sunday.

Brooklyn V Wonderful church and amazing pastor who is very relatable, I enjoyed the service entirely. The only thing that alarmed me was seeing men worship leaders with colored nail polish. Not here to judge but it’s quite questionable to have people up front representing the church and kingdom of God in a such a way there should be a certain standard but overall service was great!

brooklyn i love you epiphany church fam! best church in brooklyn. hoping they get a bigger space soon because there is always overflow (a wonderful blessing to have) and i do not get the same energy and vibes from the overflow room.

tarique blue Beautiful Sermon on 6/1. Been following this church virtually & in person since 2023. Great community & congregation!! Recommended 10/10

Mohibba Fatima I shot a wedding there, the Reverend was so kind. It was a beautiful , short and intimate wedding.
