Founded in 2004 by Pastor Donnie McClurkin, The New York Call is a coalition of Christian pastors, ministries and congregations from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The New York Call seeks to break down barriers to unite believers; promote oneness and harmony through continual fellowship; and reach out to those who are lost and hurting, with the Good News of Jesus Christ.
“For the past decade, The New York Call has been a labor of love and an effort close to my heart,” said McClurkin, senior pastor of Perfecting Faith Church, a congregation of more than 3,000 members in Freeport, Long Island. “There should be no division within the Church. We are ONE! That’s what this is all about – the Church coming together, united in our love for God, our love for one another and our love for those searching for a better way.” Thanks to cooperating efforts, over 7,000 people attended the 10th annual celebration held at the Nikon at Jones Beach Theater, last August.
