Part of our mission is for members of the community to be known, loved and cared for, which is why we provide a variety of groups, to cultivate both a relationship with God and others. These groups provide sanctuary from the pressures and anxieties of life in the city and facilitate the formation of new friendships. CGs are places where we can be revitalized and strengthened. As God made us for community, we need others to help apply the gospel to our lives. We have additional groups that allow for people to gather outside of CGs that are based on neighborhood, shared interests or hobbies, and life stage.

Coffee Clubs
These gatherings provide another way for you to connect with people in our church family who live in (or near) your neighborhood. We’re currently meeting weekly in these neighborhoods:
- Hell’s Kitchen (Bird & Branch on Tuesdays)
- South Harlem (Cafe Amrita on Saturdays)
- Upper West Side (Solid State on Fridays)
- Long Island City (Lately Cafe on Fridays)
If you have any questions or would like to start a new one in your neighborhood, email [email protected].
Young Adults Ministry
Attend LSQ and in your 20s or 30s? Join monthly gatherings to grow in community, serve the city and learn more about leading a life that reflects God’s love together. Some examples of past events include ice skating, serving with Hope for New York, and potluck meals.
Linq Groups
Linq Groups provide a way for you to connect over shared interests, hobbies and skills and invite friends — perhaps those who don’t have a church community — to join!
We currently have four groups: Running Club, Book Club, Arts & Culture Group, and Artist Collective.
Check out our calendar to learn when these groups meet next!
Tuesday Morning Men
All men are welcome to join us on Tuesday mornings at 7 a.m. each week at the W83 Ministry Center for coffee, bagels, fellowship and prayer. Our meetings are informal, and no preparation is required.
