Partnerships
Grace is an independent congregation, but we are also the result of different Christian groups that are helping us to get off of the ground. The following list represents the groups that have helped us in a significant way:
The Redeemer Church Planting Center
The vision of Redeemer's Church Planting Center (RCPC) is to ignite and fuel a city-focused, gospel-centered, values-driven church planting movement in New York, in cooperation with the wider Christian church, and to assist national leaders and denominations to plant resource churches in the global centers of the world.
Christian Missionary Alliance
We are an Alliance of evangelical believers, joined together in local churches, dedicated to fulfilling the Great Commission given by Jesus Christ. We maintain a "big tent" stance in reference to many doctrinal matters, encouraging believers of diverse backgrounds and theological traditions to unite in an alliance to know and exalt Jesus Christ and to complete His Commission. That Commission clearly instructs us:
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you" (Matthew 28:19–20,NIV).
Morning Star New York
Morning Star New York was founded in September of 2001 in the heart of New York City. Meeting in two facilities in Manhattan, MSNY has grown into a gathering of professionals, artists, and college students passionate to know God, love His people, and serve the nations, both in this great city and beyond its borders. MSNY’s services are marked by warm hospitality, vibrant worship, and powerful teachings from Scripture, delivered by senior pastor Ron Lewis as well as frequent guest speakers.
Acts 29
Acts 29 Network exists to start churches that plant churches. God is significantly using the Acts 29 network to influence and shape the church planting culture through both rock-solid theology and contextualizing the gospel. They are planting churches that are ambassadors to their respective communities sent by Christ with the gospel (John 20:21).
