First Congregational Church - albany - Albany (NY)

The Tourist Trip This place has been a beacon to the city of Albany showing others what loving your community and neighbors looks like in the most simple and practical ways. I found these guys through a Serve Albany brochure at a local coffee shop. They have been bringing together volunteers to serve this city through different non profit partners. I have found this place to be a open, welcome and safe space to explore my in faith tradition with others who are seeking a God far beyond the feeble limitations of our collective understanding and knowledge. Shout out to Jon, the pastor, who has assisted in helping shape this vision.

Christine Harvey Yes the Greek festival here is amazing but dont forget - this is a church. The people at the church are warm, friendly, welcoming. Father Pat can connect with you on a level many priests just cant. He is a huge blessing to the church. The services are wonderful, great choir too. Its a place to connect with God and feel part of a great community -even if youre not Greek.

Raina Tawil Excellent priests.

Jennifer Burtch Nice farmers market

Renee Malo My husband and I have been going to Capital Church for 8 years. It is a warm and friendly church that does many good works in our community and across the globe. Every Sunday, Dr. J shares wisdom and lessons from the Bible that feed the soul. The church has just moved to 1222 Troy-Schenectady Rd (the old Martin Harding and Mazzoti building). Give it a try it might just be the church for you too.

Ross Sudeep (TamilRascal) **If you find my review helpful, please click on the LIKE button - thank you!** Beautiful church, tucked away in Guilderland. As you can see from the pictures, the garden is immaculately maintained. Inside, the sanctuary has amazing architecture - I never get tired of looking at it! We often stop by for a few minutes of silent prayer/reflection and to light a candle. Just a wonderful place ❤️

Frank Leone Good meeting

Panchita DeAlbany Honestly …do not think I have ever written a review on purpose. In fact do not really see myself as a person that addresses their thoughts in a public manner. In the craziness of the world, and the state of some people lives at this moment..those that are sick ..those that have lost their jobs .. those that have lost loved ones.. those that are struggling with mental illness..I have learned to PRAY..and…PRAY..and..PRAY .. I have learned to read scripture and even if I don’t always understand it. I learned to seek to understand.. my life has been soooo much easier… even when it was hard… I say all this to say.. EMPIRE CHRISTIAN CENTER… it’s Pastors .. Tre and Christina… it’s people that have dedicated their lives to growing in the word.. have guided me …inspired me.. and by choice I am grounded in HIM. This month is our prayer and fasting month every year we work through a workbook.. together we live through the word ..guided through this eloquently written and thoughtful workbook… and TOGETHER.. we rise not alone not separated.. not straying to our own agendas.. but TOGETHER.. Our Pastors and friends make this possible each year.. and we grow..individually because of it..this is what church is about..strong leaders that equip us to live strong lives .. and a congregation full of dedicated servants all growing in the word..10 plus stars ❤️

Sarah Gardner My family and I have attended this church for over 5 years now and we can truly say this is our family! City Harvest has an incredibly welcoming atmosphere, is VERY kid/family friendly and has amazing fellowship with people in all seasons of life. The pastor has Godly, practical sermons that are firmly rooted in Biblical truths. In my experience, the men and woman in leadership here have proven to be loving and kind, and always willing to go above and beyond! Between the Pastors, worship, prayer, various ministries, and loving members, you can truly feel the presence of God in this church.

Anne Shaver Father David is a nice person. The mass was very moving and enjoyed hearing about the word. I hope peace comes quickly to everyone in the world. The church is beautiful inside. The peace and quiet is beautiful as well.
