Our mission is:

To welcome, love and nurture all who seek comfort, peace, spiritual guidance and growth; to prepare, through Word and deed, all people for service to God and neighbor in the manner of Jesus in the Church, the home, the community of Northern Manhattan, the nation and the world, as we celebrate and embrace our great diversity.

Our ministries reflect our efforts to seek, with joy, to recognize our need to give and encourage sharing of the gifts we receive, individually and collectively, be they time, talent, energy or financial resources; to honor our historic beginnings and to be aware and open to the new places of service that God may be calling us to today and in the future.
