Who We Are

Rooted in Faith. Committed to Connection.

the meetup ministry is a not-for-profit founded in Rochester, New York —and we’re growing across the state. Our mission is simple: to create spaces that help Christians build strong friendships, find encouragement, grow together, uplift one another, and welcome new friends to Christ. 

When believers come together, powerful things happen.

What We Do

No Barrier to Belonging

Event ticket sales help to sustain this ministry so we can continue hosting events and organizing fun experiences. Every paid ticket supports community for everyone.

Finances should never stand in the way of building meaningful Christian community. Whether you’re in a season of plenty or walking through a more careful season, there is space for you here.

Through the generous support of sponsors and donors, we’re able to offer sponsored event tickets to those in need. Applications for sponsored tickets are open from the 1st to the 15th of each month and are considered for the following month’s events. While we do our best to accommodate as many requests as possible, the availability of sponsored tickets depend on the donations available at that time.
