Celebration Weekend

April 4–6, 2025

Join us for our biggest…and (gasp) final weekend to celebrate the New York Project this April 4–6, 2025!

Come and celebrate the full 10 years of God’s faithfulness to the church planting movement in NY.

Come and see the brand new building for Redeemer East Side Church and CTCNYC Leadership Development Center.

Come and meet all the church planters who have planted since the beginning of The New York Project.

Come and experience an entire ecosystem of churches collaborating together toward reaching New York.

Our weekend will be centered around Midtown East and the Upper East Side, home to the new building.

From strolling through the Met and dinner overlooking Central Park, to stories from church planters across the city and attending Sunday worship in the new building, Celebration Weekend is an opportunity to rejoice over all that God has done in our city and dream about what’s to come.

FAQ’s

  • The New York Project is a 10-year strategy to advance gospel renewal and social good in New York City. The strategy is centered around a massive effort to start New Churches, train New Leaders and provide a real estate asset for the long-term. Though the strategy is 10 years, the vision is much longer with the hopes of seeing the entire city renewed by the gospel. 

    The New York Project began in 2016 under the leadership of Tim Keller, Redeemer City to City and Redeemer Churches and Ministries. The Project has three phases spread across 10 years. Learn more about the strategy here.

  • Celebration Weekend is an invite-only weekend for the small community of families who have supported the work of New York Project. This intimate community of friends join us from all over the country to celebrate what God is doing here in New York City.

  • Cost
