The Church of St. Mary the Virgin Saint Mary’s is a vibrant Anglo-Catholic witness in the heart of NYC. Welcome to the Church of Saint Mary the Virgin in the City of New York.
(292)

With our identity in Christ and a preference for the poor, we are an inclusive, diverse community called to love God and each other for the life of the world. Saint Mary’s was founded in 1868 to be the Episcopal parish church of the neighborhood known since 1904 as Times Square. Its first parish church stood where the Booth Theater now stands on West Forty-fifth Street. We moved to our second and present church home on December 8, 1895, but since December 8, 1870, Saint Mary’s doors have been open daily for worship, prayer and refuge for all. Worship is central to our common life. Because of our location and the particular richness of our traditions, Saint Mary’s is a local parish community and a community of people around the world who believe in the importance of this witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ in the heart of New York City. Saint Mary’s is not supported by endowments, but by the giving of those who worship here. In addition to supporting our outreach programs and those of the Diocese of New York, your gifts help us to keep our doors open so that we can continue to be a gathering place for outreach and mission, as well as a house of prayer for all people.

It’s Sunday. The doors are open.

In the middle of a city that is always moving, there is a place to be still. A place to pray, to hear the Word, to come to the Table, and to remember that you do not walk through this life alone.

Whether Saint Mary’s is already home, you’ve been away for a while, or you’ve never stepped through our doors before, there is a place for you here.

Come and see. Come and worship.
