Hello,
I serve as the Northeast Regional Manager for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) Prayer Line. On Sunday, February 1, 2026, the LORD opened a door to come with 2 others saints in BGEA to share about our prayer line and speak about intimacy with Jesus. We were extremely blessed of the love, depth of the saints in the fellowship. Pastor Richie's focus is to see the fellowship be a Jesus church, which is a house of prayer. At the end of the service, we broke up into smaller groups to pray. The group the LORD placed me was mostly very young saints repenting, weeping for the salvation of their friends, classmates, family, Brooklyn! It is one of those stones of remembrance not to be forgotten. If you live in Brooklyn, please consider visiting. You sense the presence of God, HIs joy, His peace, His love, His power here.

Thank you, Louie, for sharing this encouraging report and for bringing the BGEA Prayer Line to our fellowship on February 1. We’re grateful Pastor Richie’s vision for a Jesus-centered house of prayer resonated with you and that the small group time moved young saints to repentance and intercession for Brooklyn. We praise God for His presence, joy, peace and power among us and value your ministry and partnership. We would be honored to welcome you and the BGEA back anytime.
Thank you!

Calvary Life is an outstanding church where the Word of God and Prayer is at its center. Through the Holy Spirit, Pastor Richie is shepherding a church that is alive and thriving. A loving, warm and diverse congregation! Praise God!

Walking into this church feels like coming home. The beautiful diversity of the community shows how people from all walks of life can worship together in faith and love. The warmth, acceptance, and genuine care make everyone feel like family. The pastor’s anointed preaching speaks to the heart and uplifts the spirit. Truly a place where faith, family, and belonging come together.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you feel at home in our church and appreciate the diversity and warmth of our community. It’s our mission to create a space where everyone can worship together and feel like family. We're glad the pastor’s messages uplift your spirit.

Thank you, Lisa, for your thoughtful words! We're so glad you feel nurtured and supported here. It’s amazing to see how the Word of God inspires growth and service in our community.

The people in this church are real. They are not phony. They are always willing to pray with you, including Pastor Richie. One time I was very upset about something. The pastor's wife came with food, a smile, prayer and encouraging words. The weekday meetings are in people's homes. Some are on Zoom.I understand the Bible better as a result of the sermons and bible studies.The church has a very welcoming and encouraging atmosphere for people of all ages. / I'd like to add to this review. We are learning that it's important to desire God more than anything. Also, that we are saved to serve. Jesus came here to serve and not to be served. We have many opportunities to serve. Talking with residents in a nursing home, reaching out to homeless people on a park bench, assisting at the children's church... Calvary Life is multi-generational and multi-cultural.
Thank you for your wonderful review, Marianne. We're thrilled to hear that you feel the warmth and authenticity of our church community. It's heartening to know our gatherings, both in homes and online, help deepen your understanding of the Bible. Your insights about serving others reflect our core mission, and we are proud to provide opportunities for all ages to engage and make a difference. We appreciate your support and commitment to our church family.
Thank you!

This community has blessed me so much! CL Brooklyn has helped me grow in Christ through verse-by-verse Bible teaching, fellowship, and so many opportunities to serve my brothers and sisters in Christ.
I’ve learned so much since I started attending this church.
Thank you for your uplifting review, Deborah! We're thrilled to hear that CL Brooklyn has had such a positive impact on your spiritual journey. It's wonderful to know that the Bible teaching, fellowship, and service opportunities have enriched your life. We look forward to continuing to support you in your growth in Christ.
Thank you!

What a wonderful place to worship The Lord and to dig deep into His Word. The people who attend are super friendly and you can tell how much they love Jesus and each other.
Thank you for your heartfelt review! We're thrilled to hear that you feel a strong sense of community and connection in our worship space. It's wonderful to know that our members' love for Jesus and each other shines through. We look forward to welcoming you back for more inspiring moments together!
Thank you!

I’ve visited this church a few times, and although its not my home church, it’s truly a wonderful place of fellowship. What stands out most is the raw and honest teaching of biblical doctrine—straight from Scripture and without compromise. That kind of truth is rare these days, and it’s something I deeply value and respect about this church.
The only area I feel could be strengthened is the worship. There is a worship team, but it doesn’t seem consistent—some services may have a couple of instruments, while others are just acapella. Because of that, it can be a little harder to engage fully. That said, I know worship is such a powerful tool that God uses to prepare hearts and draw people closer to Him.
I truly believe that if this church invested more into its worship ministry, it could reach even more people—especially Gen Z and the younger generations who often connect through music. The foundation here is already so strong with sound preaching and genuine fellowship; adding a thriving worship experience would only elevate the impact God is already making through this church.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, Megan. We're glad to hear you appreciate the teaching and fellowship at our church. Your insights on the worship experience are valuable, and we take them to heart as we continually seek ways to enhance our ministry. We recognize the importance of music in worship and will consider your suggestions for strengthening our worship team. We look forward to seeing you at our next service!
Thank you!

Every service is rooted in Scripture—purely the Word of God with no fluff, opinions, or “feel good” fillers. Pastor Richie is deeply committed to teaching the Bible as God intended it, and if you’re seeking sound doctrine and biblical truth, this is the place.
What’s even more special is the sense of family I’ve found here. The fellowship is genuine, and the fruit of the Spirit is so evident in this church body. My husband and I were married this past July, and while marriage wasn’t even on our radar when we first started attending, after just six months God began preparing our hearts.
Pastor Richie and his wife Sarah walked alongside us with such love and wisdom, guiding us through discipleship and making sure we entered marriage with the right foundation and intentions. I am so grateful for how they helped me confront and heal areas within myself before saying “I do.”
Most of all, I thank God for leading me here—it has truly been life-changing.
Thank you for your heartfelt review, Felia. We're thrilled to hear that you've found a strong sense of community and biblical teaching here. It's wonderful to know that Pastor Richie and Sarah were able to support you and your husband during such an important time in your lives. Your journey is a testament to the transformative power of faith, and we are grateful to be a part of it. We look forward to continuing to support you on your spiritual journey.
Thank you!

My husband and I went looking for God and found him at Calvary Life NYC. A very organized church without the loss of personal touch and intimacy between the people and God. THE Pastor always has time for you as well.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Debbie! We're thrilled to hear that you and your husband found a welcoming community at Calvary Life NYC. Our goal is to create a personal and intimate atmosphere while maintaining organization. We're glad that our Pastor could connect with you as well. Your support means a lot to us!

These folks claim to be a synagogue of folks that believe in "Yeshua". They worship Jesus. Not Jewish, it's a church.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for highlighting the importance of clarity.
We are a Christian church, Calvary Life Brooklyn, where Jews and Gentiles gather together as one community based on our shared faith in Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ). We love and honor the Jewish roots of our faith, but we do not identify as a synagogue.
Our identity and beliefs are openly described on our website and materials. We welcome all who wish to explore the Scriptures and worship Jesus, the promised Messiah.
We invite you to visit and experience our community for yourself.
Sealia Powell2023.07.21
What can I say the fruit of the spirit is blooming in the body. I am so happy and excited to be apart of a church that loves the lord and makes an effort to glorify the lord in all its actions.
Thank you for your heartfelt review, Sealia! We're delighted to hear that you feel the love of the Lord here at Calvary Life. Your excitement and support are truly appreciated, and we are grateful to have you as part of our community. We look forward to growing in faith together!
This summer, my family was blessed with becoming acquainted with Calvary Life through VBS (Vacation Bible School). From the time of check in the first day and throughout the 3 days, I not only was able to meet and fellowship with other parents, but to witness the excitement and enthusiasm my daughter had each and every day, just exploded my heart with content and joy. After attending VBS and Sunday service, I realized that I had finally found our home church. It’s been decades in the making for us to find where we needed to be but Calvary Life offers soooo much more than I could have dreamed of in a church! Besides the location being so close to home, (Sunday service in Marine Park and indoor services not too far from there), offered there is a multitude of activities for all…. Kids, men, women, prayer, family outings…. You name it! There isn’t a week that goes by where there aren’t activities planned.
Pastor Richie and his wife Sarah, blessed with their kids, offer the most warm and inviting community at Calvary Life. Sermons are from the Word, easy to understand and leave you with a lot of food for thought. Before the close of the service, there is time to pray with others, and have a brief discussion about something relating to the message. This is a great way to reflect and delve deeper into a greater understanding of the days lesson.
Although a small church, the arms of the Lord are truly there, embracing all and blessing those who are there to receive Him and His word.
It has been such a blessing to be a part of Calvary Life and look forward to growth in my walk, as I engage in activities, worship and services offered there.
The church community are very warm and inviting. I was touched that several members reached out to me to see if I was ok when I missed a service…. Even the Pastors wife Sarah! I was truly touched.
I can’t say enough about Calvary Life except to invite you to come give it a visit. Online services are available as well as in person. They even have an app that has special events, daily happenings throughout the week, chats, recorded messages etc. In todays day, I need this type of structure to keep me organized and informed!
My heart is flooded with joy having Calvary Life, in my life. As a mom, I have been searching for the right Church that will not only feed me the Word of God but also my children.
Blessings to all.
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review, Danielle! We are thrilled to hear about your wonderful experience at Calvary Life and how it has become a place of joy and community for your family. It's encouraging to know that our activities and supportive environment resonate with you. We are grateful to have you as part of our church family and look forward to seeing your continued growth in faith. Your kind words truly inspire us!
