Welcome to Middle Church
Middle Church is a multicultural, multiethnic, intergenerational movement of Spirit and justice, powered by fierce, revolutionary Love, with room for all. We are an LGBTQ+ and Queer-affirming church, committed to healing souls and the world by dismantling racist, classist, sexist, ethnocentrist, ableist, and cisheterosexist systems of oppression.
Join us for worship in-person (50 E. 7th street, NY) & online.
In a world that moves too fast, Lent invites us to pause.
To examine our hearts.
To practice repentance as repair.
Together, we prepare for Easter through prayer, justice, and fierce love.
