Boldly Blessing the Big Apple
Christian Union Joins City-Wide Outreach by tom campisi , managing editor
It was Jesus Week in New York City . And Scott
Crosby had the honor of closing in prayer at the culminating event , a massive praise and proclamation rally to lift up the name of Jesus in Times Square .
Crosby , the ministry director for Christian Union New York , looked over the crowd of thousands of believers , seekers , and onlookers , and prayed the words of Psalm 107 .
“ I prayed for boldness for the church in New York to talk about Christ ,” he said . “ This psalmist speaks to the redeemed about all they have to be thankful for , all that which the Lord has redeemed them from , and the blessings He has given them . This is a prayer for us , as the church , to remember what the Gospel has done for us and to take it to those in the city who have not heard or who have not responded to this good news .”
Jesus Week was held from May 27 to June 3 in all five boroughs . Coordinated by Concerts of Prayer Greater New York , the event united Christians of various denominations and ethnicities for prayer walks through zip codes , worship , acts of service , ministry to the poor , and evangelism .
On a beautiful Saturday evening , Crosby joined with other city leaders for the main event in Midtown Manhattan .
