About

Rev. Tyler Sit is the author of Staying Awake: The Gospel for Changemakers, the pastor of Northeast United Methodist Church, and the Associate Director of Multicultural Ministry for The Minnesota Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church. He is the founding pastor of New City Church, a church in Minneapolis led mostly by queer people of color. Under his leadership, New City became the first 'built from scratch' church plant to charter in Minnesota United Methodism in decades, and in 2026 Sit successfully passed the ministry to his successor. A second-generation Chinese American, Sit focuses his racial justice work into the intersectional church planting network he co-founded, Intersect. Sit has been featured in the New York Times, the Atlantic, Minnesota Public Radio, and more.
