Visitor Info
We are glad you are with us! Whether you cross our threshold virtually or in person, we know you will find a place in our embracing community. This is church the way you always hoped it could be.

As many are aware, on March 7, 2022, New York City’s “Key to NYC” COVID protocols ended, which means proof of vaccination and masking are no longer required at many institutions. With this, Marble is able to update its protocols and will no longer require proof of vaccination. Wearing masks will still be required for everyone’s safety, especially since we sing when we worship. We are pleased that the pandemic is moving in the right direction, and we will continue to monitor this and be ready to implement changes should new guidance be issued.
Registration is not required to attend in person. If in the future we approach our maximum safe capacity of 250, we will return to registration. We are aware that not everyone is online, so please share this information with those who might need it. We look forward to worshipping in person and elbow-bumping with you!
