Ebenezer Church, a missionary alliance church located in Long Island City, is moving into the large 41-20 Queens Blvd. space that was previously occupied by the Nakwon Reformed Church.

Ebenezer Church, based at 43-02 38th Street in LIC, is looking for a bigger space since its current location can only seat 250 attendees, according to Charlie Ampero, a senior pastor.

The church has 300 parishioners and expects its membership to grow

Ebenezer Church is expected to move into its new 500-seat space next month.

On Saturday, Ebenezer Church held a community service at L/Cpl Thomas P. Noonan Park in Sunnyside.  Hundreds were in attendance, many of whom lined up to receive bags of free food.

years ago this was a beautiful place it was the VFW 2813 Post. to bad they could not find a box store to move in. Better than a Cult Church named after Ebenezer Scrooge

Lots of people love this ‘God’ fellow. If only they loved human beings as much.

I welcome people who want to love God. I’m surprised in the previous commenters.

This place would have made a great DAY CARE. something sunnyside desperately needs. Where are all the damn day cares? We got all these kids and nothing to do for them. or a play zone for afterschool with tutoring? nope…another church .
