Sunday Morning Worship (Virtual Only)

WEATHER ALERT FOR SUNDAY, JANUARY 25, 2026: A significant snowstorm is expected to impact New York City this coming weekend, with the most severe conditions anticipated on Sunday. Current forecasts are calling for up to 16 inches of snow.

Out of an abundance of caution and care for our members, worship will be held virtually only on Sunday, January 25, 2026. The building will be closed, and no onsite activities will take place.

In addition, the Choir Benefit Cabaret scheduled for this Sunday has been canceled.

Additional logistical details will be shared as needed. Thank you for your flexibility and care as safety remains the top priority.

Whoever you are: You are safe here. You are loved here. You are invited into full participation in our life together. We welcome, affirm, and celebrate all God’s children, LGBTQIA+.

Worship of God is at the center of our life at The Riverside Church and our services reflect the diversity of who we are as the body of Christ. All are welcome as we seek to create a beloved community, nourish faith, and transform our world. We are an interdenominational, interracial, international, open, welcoming, and affirming church and congregation.

ATTIRE: You can dress comfortably and in a manner that makes you feel at ease. Whether it’s casual attire or dressed-up, we’re happy to welcome you just as you are.

CHILDREN & YOUTH: The Education Ministry at the Riverside Church provides a robust year of programming for our children and youth.
