Dear Christian Union New York Cornerstone Partners and other friends of the ministry,


What an eventful month it has been in NYC and across the country!  Christian Union NYC is so incredibly grateful for your prayers for and support of the work we are doing to bring Jesus to bear in our own lives and in the lives of many other fellow New Yorkers; believers and non-believers!  


On November 30, Christian Union’s New York ministry teamed up with our Alumni Relations team to host a virtual forum with esteemed guest, Dr. Vince Vitale. His topic of discussion was “Working Relationships and Relationships that Work: Fostering A Redemptive Corporate Culture.” It was a powerful time of hearing testimony from Dr. Vitale about how God has moved through Him and others to bring the gospel and peace of Christ in an effective way into our workplaces. We hosted about 130 of you as guests! We hope you were strengthened and challenged to hone those skills and relationships for Kingdom purpose. You are ambassadors for Christ in your workplace and it is our great privilege to come alongside you and equip you for that task.


We are finally hosting our first in-person fasting and prayer CU Fire retreat since the original lockdown. Praise God! These are difficult times, but we Christians still need encouragement and equipping, maybe even more so in these challenging and isolating times. Due to COVID regulations, we will be very cautious and are keeping it limited to 10 guests. God moves in great power at these retreats. Our guests are esteemed Christian professionals in positions of influence in NYC. Christian Union NYC desires to equip you all and pour out our lives as drink offerings to mobilize you to mobilize city and national revival. We have recruited dedicated intercessors to fast and pray for 50 hours this week for God’s transformative power to move on us at the retreat! “It is not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit says the LORD of hosts” (Zechariah 4:6). We will pray for each guest by name and beseech the Father to do mighty works in the lives of each one and in the lives of those they will no doubt touch and influence as a result.  


Lastly, we are so honored to host the General Counsel of NYC’s OATH office, Olga Statz, as a brilliant and compelling guest speaker for a virtual forum on Faith and Law. Her talk is entitled “Bringing Hellfire to Heel: A Lawyer’s Guide to Mastering the Tongue and Speaking the Truth.” You can register here.  You will not want to miss this one!  Lawyer or not, we all use words as tools in our trade. Christian Union is also inviting Cornerstone Partners to a special pre-event where Olga will discuss how the role of the high court is to stand as guardian over the law, and what the fight over the appointment of Amy Coney Barrett and recent Supreme Court justices tells us about the shifting understanding of the court’s role. 


  • Please pray that God moves in power during the CU Fire retreat among these Christian lay leaders, that they may have a significant and catalytic effect on their workplaces, homes, and churches.  Also, let’s ask the Holy Spirit to anoint Olga Statz in such a way that we are all transformed by the message God brings through her.

  • Pray that through “end of year giving,” God compels many to join you in partnering with us to advance this valuable investment into the lives of people like you and that the city will be transformed by the love and power of God.

Thank you for your partnership with us in ministry. Jesus is worthy of everything that we have and are. We love and cherish you and your faithful partnership with Christian Union NYC to bring the desires of the Lord’s heart to bear.
