LEAD PASTORS

Bukky & Tobi Atte

Pastors Bukky and Tobi Atte are the lead pastors of Ignite Church NYC. They love God, love people and care deeply about helping people grow their faith and become who God has called them to be.

Tobi is a speaker, coach and creator with a passion for godly relationships, purpose, and personal growth. Bukky is an award-winning public health leader and humanitarian who has spent much of her career helping build healthier, stronger communities.

Together, they have been building Ignite since 2015. They are parents to two children and share a passion for strong, healthy families, which they pour into their marriage ministry. Whether at their local church or the global Body of Christ, their heart is to see communities where faith in Jesus is practical, people grow spiritually, and people are equipped to make a difference in their generation far beyond Sunday.
