The River is a progressive church, located in Midtown Manhattan, where faith and community continually intertwine in delightful ways. In-person attendees come from all five boroughs of New York City, New Jersey, and Westchester County, though people from around the country (and the world!) regularly tune into our services on YouTube Live.

WHAT WE'RE ABOUT

We seek to create spaces and programming where people can strengthen their connections (to God, self, others, creation, and the world around us); can more deeply embody unconditional love; and can more fully embrace the "life in all its fullness" that God desires for all people.
