 St John's is pleased to be twinned with the Church of the Heavenly Rest .
The Episcopal Church of the Heavenly Rest, New York is at 2 East 90th Street at Fifth Avenue in the heart of Manhattan. It is a vibrant, inclusive church in the heart of a great city—just like St John's.
Our connection comes from the desire of The Bishop of London and the Bishop of New York to see churches in these two cities forge relationships between their communities. London and New York churches share many of the same opportunities and challeneges, proclaiming God's love to all people in the 21st Century. |
