ICCNY’S Together Ministry is designed to minister to couples who are married and on their way to marriage. The primary objective is to create a platform that honors love and commitment, according to God’s original design for mankind. Restoring integrity to the family nucleus. A healthy connection is essential to the foundation and structure of the family. The husband and wife relationship is the model unit that sets the tone for relational comprehension, emotional expression and social expectation, for offspring(s) and neighboring relatives.

Together Ministry seeks to merge communication, responsibility, sexuality recreation and confrontation with spirituality. Exploring all nuances of the relationship and embracing how it all gives glory to our God. It is God who instituted the family, with marriage at its foundation. Cultural influences have moved us farther away from the spiritual aspect of marriage, hence introducing dysfunction and perversion into the home. Spirituality is active, adventurous, spontaneous, romantic and fun. Here is an opportunity to redefine the misnomer of a lifeless marriage due to salvation. This branch of ministry will change your perspective as to how to have a life that is full of life.

Together Ministry is a branch of the Inner City Church of NY, under the leadership of Bishop Darius J Nixon. This area of the church will be under the direction of Father Julian & Elder Sabrina Lopez.
Father Julian and Elder Sabrina Lopez celebrate 40 years of marriage as of July 2025. Together, they bring a wealth of wisdom, grace, spiritual insight and marriage mentorship.
The Lopezes have counseled countless couples through pre-marital and post-marital seasons, always with compassion and biblical truth. Their heart for healthy, God-centered relationships is rooted in their own journey and the belief that strong marriages build strong families and communities.
Devoted parents of two adult children and proud grandparents to one granddaughter, Father Julian and Elder Sabrina serve with a deep commitment to family, faith, and legacy. They are honored to lead the Together Ministry and walk alongside families seeking to grow in love, partnership, and purpose.
