If you are looking for a religious community, this may be a place for you! We are a Sanctuary and Reconciling in Christ Parish of the ELCA. We are a bi-lingual English-speaking and Spanish-speaking community. We are Brown, Black, White and more. We are persons of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Some of us hold citizenship, others of us are Dreamers, asylees or seeking documentation. A good way to begin this journey is to participate in our Sunday liturgies. If you are looking for community rooted in the arts and in social action, this may be a place for you! Visual and performing arts, community engagement and a commitment to the City are at our core. Our entire public building—our iconic modernist Sanctuary with its distinctive organ is a treasured New York City Landmark—is home to people and programs with an almost immeasurable impact: from world-class Jazz to our immigration accompaniment efforts. Louise Nevelson's beloved Chapel is an oasis of healing and Saint Peter's/Lenox Hill Neighborhood House's Older Adults Center provides key services to hundreds of people.

When Dr. Lonnie Smith (one of the most famous jazz organists of all time), was shown a clip of Leonieke playing piano he said, “you’ve been here before!” When told of her interest in organ, he sent her a Hammond organ as a gift. She was just 10 years old. By age 11, she would win an award from the International Women in Jazz, do an hour long feature over radio station WBGO, and be recorded by legendary engineer, Rudy Van Gelder along with Miles Davis’ drummer, Jimmy Cobb.
In the years to follow, Leonieke would go on to win a second International Women in Jazz award, the New Jersey Governor’s award and her most prestigious award to date, the Hot House Fan Decision Award for “Best Up and Coming Young Artist.” Leonieke also has become a guest lecturer of music, and a TEDx speaker. In July 2022, Leonieke signed an agreement with the Hammond/Suzuki company becoming a Hammond Artist!, a relationship that is bestowed upon very few.
From April to June 2025, Leonieke led her band “Leonieke & the New York Groove” representing the United States of America at the World’s Fair in Japan (Osaka EXPO 2025). In addition, she continues to be featured in numerous publications, and leads a Jazz Trio with world-renowned bassist, Bill Crow. Their group, “The 3 Generations of Jazz Trio”, was recently featured in the Neal Minor documentary entitled: “Bill Crow: Jazz Journeyman.”
Leonieke is a highly sought after artist among the finest New York Jazz musicians, and maintains an extensive performance schedule as both a sideman and bandleader.
