Community of Faith

Saint Barnabas is more than just a church; we are a vibrant and inclusive community of faith deeply rooted in God’s love. Our mission is to be a beacon of hope, compassion, and support for the people of Howard Beach and our surrounding communities.

Help St Barnabas Stay Warm

In 2023, Saint Barnabas Lutheran Church celebrated 100 years of ministry in Howard Beach. We are now in need of a new boiler that will help us to continue to host various community groups in addition to our worship community.

All are Welcome!

Sunday School is not just about learning; it's about making lifelong friends, deepening our faith, and having fun while doing it. Join us this Sunday for a dose of inspiration and community.

100 Years Strong

Following our centennial celebration in 2022, our church continues to thrive. Although our congregation is relatively small, we remain active within the community and have achieved remarkable feats throughout the years.
