YAN New York City · New Hub — Join the Launch Team
One City. Many Churches. One Mission.
The same movement connecting young-adult ministries in Atlanta is taking its first steps in New York City — and it starts with the leaders willing to help build it.
Help Launch YAN NYCWhere This Started
Born in Atlanta. Built city by city.
YAN began as a way to connect the young-adult ministries already at work across Atlanta — not to compete with churches, but to help what God was already doing find each other. That same simple idea is now finding its way to New York City.
There's no directory or event calendar here yet — this hub is genuinely just beginning. If you lead a young-adult ministry, group, or church in the five boroughs, you'd be one of the first voices shaping what YAN NYC becomes.
For the Glory of Jesus
“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. … that they may be one as we are one—I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”
John 17:20–23 (NIV)
“Already the new men are dotted here and there all over the earth.”
— C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity (1952), Book 4
A City, Waiting to Connect
From Brooklyn to the Bronx.
Young-adult ministries are already at work across every borough. YAN NYC exists to become the thread that connects them — as soon as the founding leaders are in place.
The Network
YAN NYC doesn't exist yet — you could help start it.
There's no directory, no events, no leader list here — not yet. The first ministries and leaders who join become the founding team for the entire city.

One Movement, Many Cities
New York isn't alone in this.
YAN NYC shares the same foundation as every other hub — starting with Atlanta, where the movement began, and Los Angeles, launching alongside New York.
