What Clients Are Saying about Church of the City New York [Office] (on GG)
5 /5 Anna T: I enjoyed the service at their 10 am service at a synagogue.
5 /5 Kelsey Linnartz: Amazing people and amazing worship, sermons that are life applicable and helping me learn how thrive in New York City. As someone new to the city, being involved at this church has helped me feel encouraged and valued,an incredible place to make new friends & be surrounded by encouraging people helping me grow in my faith.
5 /5 Rinn B: This church changed my life. My relationship with the Lord has never been the same since I started going there. I have now relocated and it is the number one thing I miss about NYC (and that’s saying a lot!). They have the best worship team - Emily is amazing and keeps their music fresh and modern. No drums, just a piano and guitar which I love. They offer really powerful prayers rooms which I have yet to find anywhere else. It was the first place where I consistently went to a community group. And Jon Tyson is a fantastic, engaging pastor.
5 /5 Robert Long Jr: Wow! The combination of worship and prayer was the most beautiful experience I have ever experienced at church.
Not to mention that the building we were in is absolutely stunning.
5 /5 Nancy Florence: I have been streaming COTC since the Pandemic, I find this church a trusted voice, I support them, I believe the Holy Spirit is working powerfully with this community of believers. I am very encouraged by the lives of the folks in this community.
Amanda Corinne Small: Meta Church was a gem of a find. I felt so welcomed and at home upon arriving my first day (alone mind you). The messages are so powerful and I always walk away feeling like a better person or someone who can make a difference because of them. Going to Meta on Sundays have become something I look forward to each week as I know that no matter how I show up, I always leave with a sense of fulfillment, clarity, and happiness. Ricky and Krista are two of the most welcoming, thoughtful, and bright people ive encountered here in the city and owe it to them for all they do for our neighborhood and being there when I need it most. I highly recommend Meta to all!
Amelia: Exploring churches in Manhattan is a hobby of mine. Whenever I have time, I like to scout out churches that Ive never been to and visit. I happened to be in the neighborhood after having had lunch near by and found this church.
The exterior of the church is a more sedate, Greek revival style with marble columns. I almost mistook it for a bank as I walked by. Thankfully they had the doors wide open and could clearly see inside that it was a church. Once you enter inside youll be blown away by the ornate interior. The murals, stained glass windows, carved wooden beams, and marble altar are very reminiscent of churches in Europe. And the high, barrel vaulted ceilings give the church a feeling of grandeur that bellies its small size. Its a gorgeous old church with some of the best murals Ive seen in the ceiling. I spent quite a long time just staring and meditating at them.
I came during an off time and while the church was practically empty. So, I cant comment on the mass or services here as Ive never attended one. But this church is just stunning and worth a visit just to see the interior.
Oliver: I just went for the first time. For me, these are the earmarks of what I would consider a church that I want to attend.
The pastor preaches straight from the word and exposits it with historical context. Near the end of the sermon he presents the gospel and extends an invitation to non-believers (who are of course welcome to attend). After this, the bread and wine is administered to the congregation and more prayers are given.
The commitment to biblical preaching and genuine community is what will likely keep me going to this church.
