After a brief orientation and safety session, the group will head out for a walking tour of Midtown Manhattan where you will see such sites as Rockefeller Center, 5th Avenue, Radio City Music Hall, St Patrick's Cathedral, Bryant Park and Grand Central Station. Following dinner your group will take a night tour of Times Square, the "Crossroads of the World," then return to the hotel for devotions and a time of discussion.


Day 2

Your morning will begin with a ferry ride past the Statue of Liberty to Ellis Island where you will learn about early immigration to the U.S. Afterward, the group will embark on an urban hike to visit Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, Federal Hall, Ground Zero, St Paul's Chapel, Little Italy and Chinatown. Here, you will have free time for lunch and a little shopping, and the afternoon will conclude with a final walking tour through Soho, Greenwich Village and Washington Square Park, home to NYU. Following dinner in the evening you will have more free time for shopping and additional sightseeing before returning to the hotel for devotions.

This morning will be spent in ministry with a local organization, serving the people of New York City and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ. In the afternoon you will have free time in Union Square before a night out on the town. The evening will include a special dinner and a Broadway play, then conclude with devotions and a time of discussion.


Day 4

Following breakfast at the hotel you will have the option to spend the morning shopping or visiting the world famous Metropolitan Museum of Art or the American Museum of Natural History (additional costs may apply). The group will meet for a picnic lunch in Central Park after which you will want to take time to explore some of this 640+ acre green space in the middle of New York City! In the afternoon you may want to shop on 5th Avenue, take a carriage ride through Central Park or just head down to Macy's Department Store. You will have dinner in the city then take in a view that will never be forgotten as you head to the 86th floor of the Empire State Building or perhaps choose the view at the top of Rockefeller Center. Devotions will round out the night.


Day 5

Following morning check-out, the group will head over to Rockefeller Center for a tour of NBC studios where such shows as Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock are filmed. There will be some time for last-minute shopping or sightseeing before you will collect your bags and transfer to the airport for the flight home.
