Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, NYC

What Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, NYC does

The Church of St. Ignatius Loyola is a Roman Catholic parish on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, administered by the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) under the authority of the Archdiocese of New York and led by Pastor Dennis J. Yesalonia, S.J. and Associate Pastor Mark Hallinan, S.J. The parish operates from the Parish House at 980 Park Avenue and a secondary site at 48 East 84th Street (McKinnon Hall). Its building has been declared a New York City Landmark for neoclassical and Baroque Revival architecture and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The parish is supported by approximately 28 staff and runs an extensive sacramental, liturgical, educational, and cultural program.

The parish's offering is organized around daily Mass schedules (Monday-Friday at 8:30 AM and 5:30 PM; Saturday vigil; four Sunday Masses including an 11:00 AM Solemn Mass), the seven Catholic sacraments, religious education and OCIA formation, six ministry categories (Community, Prayer, Service, Liturgical, Spiritual, Music), and a programmed concert and recital series featuring visiting choirs and the principal organist. Charitable activity is anchored by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul ministry, active at the parish since 1865, which runs backpack, food, blood, and Christmas gift drives in coordination with New York Blood Center, Our Lady of Lourdes Parish School in Harlem, and Church of the Ascension Food Pantry, alongside an Ignatian Social Justice Ministry and a Migrant Accompaniment program.

The parish does not generate revenue through commercial product sales. Operating support comes from parishioner stewardship, donations, facility-use fees, ticket and program revenue from the music series, and planned giving, with a sister parish relationship with the Church of St. Catherine in Bethlehem extending its ministry footprint. Distribution is primarily in-person at the Park Avenue sanctuary, supplemented by a global digital channel consisting of the ignatius.nyc website, YouTube livestream of the Sunday Solemn Mass, Facebook community engagement, and a weekly email newsletter.
