New Light Baptist Church

New Light Baptist Church anchors worship and community events at 250 W 127th St in a century-old tradition of gospel services, midweek Bible study, holiday observances, and youth outreach. Bringing worship to Harlem since before the jazz age, the church hosts Sunday services and small-group gatherings open to neighbors and visitors alike.

Dial (212) 222-8459 to check service times or stop by before Sunday morning. Find them on the map for directions up to the corner where 127th meets the avenue’s rhythm. The stone façade sits on a block still humming with bodegas and brownstones that remember Duke Ellington and Sly Stone once passing through.
