About this church
First Evangelical Free Church gathers for worship on Sunday mornings at 10:45 a.m. in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn, at 6501 6th Avenue. The congregation belongs to the Evangelical Free tradition and describes its worship in three movements: being called together and confessing, hearing God's story through prayer, Scripture readings, preaching and song, and being sent out into daily life. Each Sunday includes a set-aside time for Scripture and practical teaching. Most Sundays, a coffee-and-snack time called Linger Longer follows in the Fellowship Cafe beside the worship center. The English-language service meets in the sanctuary, while a Chinese-language congregation worships in the same building at the same hour.
Weekly and monthly groups include a Ladies Bible Study that meets online every other Tuesday evening, a Men's Breakfast Fellowship on the third Saturday of the month, an Adult Bible Cell group on the first and third Sunday afternoons, and a monthly prayer meeting. A youth group for junior high and high school students meets Friday evenings in the Youth Room and gym. Visitors sign in at the front desk. A parking lot sits behind the building, and the Bay Ridge Ave stop on the R train and the 8th Ave stop on the N train are a short walk away. Sermons are posted on YouTube each Sunday afternoon. Group details can change, so confirm on the website.
