Since 1984 #NYSUM has provided urban ministry opportunities in NYC for teams around the country. Book your next mission trip with us today!
Founded in 1984, the New York School of Urban Ministry (NYSUM) hosts, trains, and deploys thousands of youth and adults for urban ministry each year by partnering with inner city pastors and churches in New York City. In addition to providing practical urban classroom teaching and training, NYSUM provides accommodations and home-style meals for small and large groups at our 70,000 square foot training facility. NYSUM’s staff equips students from Colleges, Seminaries, Bible Schools, Youth Groups, and Church Groups. Our students learn about inner-city ministry at the grassroots through diverse, cross-cultural, “hands-on” outreaches to Muslims, Jews, the homeless, abused women, the disabled, terminally ill, and those victimized by natural disasters. Outreaches take place via street meetings, soup kitchens, rescue missions, city shelters, rehab centers, and more.
NYSUM is more than just another “school”. We are a “training and resource center serving the urban church.” NYSUM’s purpose is to train laborers for the front lines - servant leaders who can face the urban challenge. Our school is unique in that groups from Seminaries, Bible Schools, and Colleges. Churches and Mission Organizations learn urban ministry at the grass roots with a cross-cultural “hands-on” focus. This is possible through NYSUM’S years of networking and partnering with pastors and churches throughout all five boroughs of New York City.
