OUR STORY
IS A PART OF HIS STORY

Since our humble beginnings in May 1985 in Greenpoint, Saints Church has been a vibrant and thriving faith community in the heart of New York City. Under the devoted leadership of Pastors Michael and Maria Durso, our church, formerly known as Christ Tabernacle, has grown from a small gathering of believers into a ministry that continues to make an impact. For almost four decades, Pastors Michael and Maria have served as spiritual parents to many, affectionately known as "Mom and Dad Durso" within our congregation.

Their passion for reaching the lost and healing the hurting has shaped the mission of Saints Church, extending beyond our walls to impact lives across the city. Through their mentorship, countless pastors, leaders, and world changers have been equipped to carry forward the mission and vision, influencing communities locally and globally.

At Saints Church, our commitment is to reach people and grow the believer. As a discipleship-focused church, we strive to develop leaders, encourage generosity, foster a deep prayer life, and support each person in their spiritual growth and understanding of God's Word. Our community is grounded in these pillars, and together, we continue to build the church—one person at a time.

Welcome to Saints Church, where you are not just a visitor—you are family.
