Ray Of Hope Church Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Inc.

The LGBTQSIAN2ss+ Pride Activities, and Social Events Center of Elmira, NY.

The only Church in Central New York founded and fostered by the GLBTQSIA2ss+ community for 39 years. October 31, 2022 - 39th Anniversary now in our 40th year in Ministry.

We remember: NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt - Sundays. One of the primary reasons for the start of Ray Of Hope Church was the HIV/AIDS crisis as it hit central New York State.

In addition to celebrating World AIDS Memorial Day on December 1, we read names from the Quilt on most Sundays of the year and we display a block each week.

Even after all these years, some churches, religions, and countries continue to reject sick, lonely, and dying people with HIV/AIDS who need spiritual guidance. Therefore, we continue to read aloud over 10,000 names sewn into the Quilt.
