WELCOME TO
GLORY CITY
Glory City is a new church launching in the fall of 2025 in Lake Worth, Florida.
With a vision to spread the gospel in one of the most dechurched regions in the country, our mission is to make disciples that transform South Florida to the glory of God.
Our Vision
Glory City Church exists so that people without purpose can find meaning in Jesus.
Our Mission
The mission of Glory City church is to make disciples that transform cities to the glory of God.
Our Values
We Meet People Where
They Are
We Meet People Where They Are
Wherever people might be on their spiritual journey, Glory City is excited to provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment for them to know, love, and serve Jesus. As a spiritual family, we heed the Lord’s commandment to “Go” and make disciples throughout south Florida! Thus, as you’re considering partnering with us, know that Glory City is committed to connecting Sunday's faith with Monday’s work and everything in between, by making disciples that engage people wherever they might be physically or spiritually.
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations...”
- Matthew 28:19

We Grow Together
We Grow Together
In a time where isolation and loneliness is at an all time high, we’re choosing to commit to biblical community. At Glory City, we’re pushing back on favoritism, cliques, and other unhealthy societal norms to devote ourselves to spiritual growth by sharing our full authentic selves with one another. We’re building a family. A family where everyone is treated equally regardless of their status or gifting. In this family, we challenge each other to grow spiritually. And we believe true growth is found in community with other believers.
“And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the breaking of bread and to prayer…And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.”
-Acts 2:42, 47

We Occupy the
Whole City
We Occupy the Whole City
Think of Glory City Church as a divine disruption. As a church, Glory City Church intends to overwhelm the cities we inhabit with an incarnational approach to ministry. We aren’t just a ministry, we’ll be in the marketplace too. We will meaningfully impact the lives of people in the city by actively engaging with every part of it.
“Calling His servants He gave them ten talents and said to them, Occupy until I come.”
-Luke 19:13

We Glorify God with
Our Best
We Glorify God with Our Best
At Glory City, we sacrifice our best as a way of living. Whether it's our time, our talent, or our treasure we give it to God willingly. Our hope is to inspire a generation to live in light of eternity. For Glory City church that means sparing no expense or effort to bring glory to The One who gives us life. We exist to serve Him. And we will serve Him with our best.

Church For
a new generation
a new generation
Glory City Church is passionate about reaching Haitian-Americans.
Deborha and I both grew up in traditional Haitian churches and while we’re thankful for our upbringing, we also recognize a need for change. That desire for change is part of what motivates us to plant this church. With a calling to reintroduce God to our generation, Glory City is dedicated to provide a home for Haitian Americans who might not feel at home in the traditional Haitian church, but would still love to engage with Haitian culture.
So when you visit Glory City you’ll probably hear some Haitian praise and worship songs mixed into worship. When you give financially, your gift will help to further justice/advocacy initiatives on behalf of Haitians and other vulnerable people around the world. And if you become a member you can probably expect to have the best food in the world during our events and get togethers (Yes I’m talking about Haitian Food). That said, Glory City is not exclusive to Haitians. We welcome everyone as we help people without purpose to find meaning in Jesus. So whether you’re Christian or not, Haitian or not, there’s a place for you here. Join us, as we transform south Florida to the glory of God!

“The vigorous continual planting of new congregations is the single most crucial strategy for the numerical growth of the body of Christ in a city…”
- Tim Keller
Glory City isn’t just a church. For us, starting this church is about sparking a gospel-fueled movement that transforms South Florida. We want to see families coming out of poverty and homelessness. We want to see businesses being built for Kingdom causes. We want to see public officials and institutions making decisions that align with scripture. We want to see the sick healed! In short, we want to see the region come to reflect the Glory of God through the power of the local church.
And we need YOU to do it! If you share our vision and want to join us, we’d love to have a conversation with you. Click the link below to fill out our launch team application, and one of our team members will be in touch with you. We’re hoping to launch in the fall of 2025 and would be glad to have you on the journey with us. Together, we can make a greater impact for the Kingdom of God.

About Pastor Andy
Dr. Andy Vital is not your typical pastor. Growing up in Hamilton, NJ with a love for Hip Hop and the Philadelphia Eagles, Andy’s life was radically changed after a Christian youth event when he was 17. Since fully surrendering to Jesus in 2010, Andy has spent the last 15 years serving as a movement leader, bible teacher, author, pastor, and community advocate.
In 2020, God led Andy and his wife Deborha to south Florida, sight unseen, where they would begin preparations to launch Glory City church. In 2021, they started the Haitian Christian Leadership Network, a nonprofit organization developing Christian leaders for integral mission on behalf of Haitian communities. In 2023, Andy earned his doctorate degree in Intercultural Studies from Fuller Theological Seminary. In between all of this they owned and operated a missional business, discipled tens, and had two beautiful children born in 2022 and 2024. Andy and Deborha reside in Palm Beach County, Florida with their two children where Andy is still a die-hard Eagles fan. To stay up to date with Andy, you can follow him on social media @andymvital.
