ILLUMINATE Day Retreat
Saturday, October 11, 2025 • 10am -2:30pm

The ILLUMINATE Fall Day Retreat, sponsored by Christ Church NYC’s LGBTQIA+ Ministry & Marble Collegiate Church’s GIFTS: LGBTQ+ ministry, invites queer folk and allies to withdraw from normal rhythms and connect in celebration of queer spirituality.

With workshop, worship, and more moments themed around self-expression and self-exploration, participants will illuminate new ways in which they embody God’s image in their lives.

Find out more information and register now at www.christchurchnyc.online/illuminate2025.

Worship at Christ Church is shaped by the splendor and grandeur of our sanctuary, which befits the splendor and grandeur of the God we worship through Jesus Christ. While ancient in appearance, our sanctuary is alive and vibrant with color and imagery. In our worship we strive to capture these qualities, being faithful to the ancient worship patterns of Christian peoples, relevant to living lives of purpose and meaning in a modern, fast-paced city like New York.

Join us at 9AM for an intimate service with Holy Communion celebrated weekly.

Fall Faith Forum (Sept. 21 - Nov. 9)

COMMITMENT 2025:
IT’S GO TIME

In Mark 13:1-9, Jesus urges His disciples to blepete—a Greek word evoking readiness and bold anticipation, like a runner poised to spring. Inspired by this, Christ Church’s Stewardship Team has chosen "It’s Go Time!" as this year’s Commitment Sunday theme on November 17. This annual celebration invites members to prayerfully consider their financial commitment for 2025, embracing a dynamic blepete to support our church’s expanding ministries: growing hospitality efforts, new additions to children & youth ministry, outreach initiatives, staff diversity, and deeper partnerships. With prayer, discernment, and generosity, members are encouraged to join in this year’s “GO,” supporting Christ Church’s vibrant mission in the coming year.

On Sunday November 17, we will give an opportunity for those planning on giving to Christ Church in 2025 to bring their commitment forward during the service.
