CHANGE THE CITY, CHANGE THE WORLD

At Meta, you’ll find a young church community where you can connect with other people, grow in your relationship with Jesus, and discover a life full of potential and promise. Our church is made up of people from different walks of life with a diverse range of experiences, but we all share one common desire: to experience the transformative power of Jesus in our lives!

We’re committed to building authentic community and cultivating a real-world faith that produces meaningful impact in our lives, our communities, our city, and our world.

Over the years, we’ve given away over $175,000 to support people in times of need (such as COVID-19 relief), and through various initiatives like providing free haircuts weekly for children and seniors at the Washington Houses, or partnering with Project 12.31.

But our commitment to change isn’t limited to our own initiatives. We’ve also financially supported other church plants in Queens, Harlem, and The Bronx. And through our partnership with Freedom Church in the UK, we’ve also been able to help plant churches in Raleigh, NC, Kigali, Rwanda, and Siem Reap, Cambodia.

We might be young, but we know we’re called to change the city and change the world!

While their journey has been filled with steps of faith and adventure, they’ve also encountered difficulty and challenges with grief, loss, addiction and depression.

Through those experiences, God forged something deeper and more meaningful than either of them could have ever imagined. God had purpose that was more than and beyond what either Krista or Ricky would have designed for themselves. These experiences became their personal “meta” story.

God has used their experiences to shape the heart and vision for Meta Church. It’s through this lens that Krista and Ricky are committed to proclaiming a message of hope and transformation authentically and vulnerably to help others step into their own “meta” story.
