Our mission is to serve the religious and social needs of our parishioners and promote the Eastern Orthodox Faith and Greek Heritage of the founders of the Church. We serve the faithful in the towns of Union, Elizabeth, Millburn, Scotch Plains, Springfield, Kearny, Clark, Mountainside, Linden, Basking Ridge, Hillside, Lyndhurst, Florham Park, Caldwell, Roselle Park, Sayreville, Whippany, Short Hills, Colonia, Edison, Summit, Berkley Heights, Hasbrouck Heights and Bloomfield. We have different programs for the different needs and for all ages in our community. The eastern or Greek orthodox Church is one of the original Churches of Christianity, which was founded on the Day of the Pentecost in Jerusalem in 33 A. D. Ten days after Jesus Christ ascended to Heaven, He sent His Holy Spirit on the Heads of His Disciples, which according to the description at the Acts of the Apostles, stood like burning tongues. Since that Day Orthodox Church has kept unbroken the Holy Tradition of the Church given by Jesus Christ and His Disciples. Later he accepted the Decrees of the Seven Ecumenical Synods, which were convened by the Church in order to solve religious, dogmatical questions. The decrees of the Seven Ecumenical Synods are infallible. Christianity started in the Holy City of Jerusalem in the East and with the ages expanded around the world. During this development, due to different ideology and point of views and politics, the unity of the Church began to split into different denominations. The Holiest Cities for early Christians are considered to be Jerusalem, Damascus, Rome, Alexandria and later when the Eastern Roman Empire was established in Byzantium - Constantinople. Constantinople became the Capital of the Byzantine Empire and became the center of Christianity. The universal language in these first centuries was Greek and the Gospels except St. Matthew were written in Greek. The first three centuries of Christianity went through severe persecution, but it came out victorious and the truth dominated the universe.

Before St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church of Wyckoff, NJ officially became a church, its beginnings can be traced to a small group of families who were members of St. Athanasios Church of Paterson, NJ. Their vision was to establish a Greek Orthodox Community for the faithful residing in the local neighborhood of Northwest Bergen and Northeast Passaic counties. Following many meetings of setting goals and objectives, a corporation was formed in November 1969 - The Bergen Greek Orthodox Community, Inc Its key objective was to buy land to build a church and community center. After an intensive search of the area, a 5 1 of land strategically located near Route 208, Wyckoff, NJ was found. Its purchase was concluded in April 1970. Shortly thereafter, permission was granted by the Wyckoff Board of Education to hold religious services at the Coolidge School gymnasium. Bible and prayer services were held each Sunday under the supervision of Fr. Demetrios Stepahanopoulos ( Retired ). A challenge was made by the Diocese of NJ that we achieve a membership of 100 families before we were given permission to celebrate the Divine Liturgy. An intensive and sustained membership drive consisting of current members...two by two...making home and business visitations, resulted in the achievement of that goal by late October 1970. Subsequently, Fr. Milton Stamatos ( the first lay priest of the Archdiocese ) also joined Fr. Stephanopoulos in conducting Liturgical Services. Later that year, the community was assigned its first resident priest - Fr. Nicholas Ksethias. Services continued at Coolidge School, during the school year and at Grace Methodist Church during the summer and other school recesses. Growth in membership continued and a high level of activity focused on the planning, financing and construction of a multi-purpose building to house the church, fellowship hall and classrooms. The formal cornerstone-laying ceremony took place in December1972. Subsequently, other small parcels of land contiguous to the property were purchased for expansion. The commitment and zeal of the parishioners for a church was best reflected during the spring of 1972, when a portable icon screen system was constructed, containing traditional icons, which transformed the Coolidge gym into a church atmosphere. This icon system was put up and dismantled each and every service by a dedicated group of parishioners, who owned station wagons, and shuttled the sections back and forth for storage in the garage on the property. This ritual continued until we occupied our multi-purpose building. On April 13, 1973 the Thyranoixia Service ( opening ) of our new multi-purpose building took place. Months before, dear friends of Fr Ksethias - Mr. and Mrs Frank Weinstein - donated $40, 000 toward our building. In recognition of their philanthropy, the classroom wing was named the St. Photios wing. Also in recognition of the dedicated and unswerving effort of Fr. Nicholas Ksethias in those "pioneer days", the community unanimously named our church - St. Nicholas. In the fall of 1973, Fr. Charles Serelis became our parish priest. He served in that capacity until October 1975, when Fr. James Moulketis was assigned to our parish. The continued growth of our membership during the ensuing years created the need for a formal church building. In March1983, the General Assembly voted to start construction of our current church building. Groundbreaking ceremonies took place on March 18, 1984, completing the original plan to build a church attached to the multi-purpose hall. Through the generous contributions of our Stewards and the dedicated effort of parishioners in fund-raising activities, the church was completed in mid-1985, with the Thyranoixia Service taking place on November 10, 1985. Since then the sanctuary has been embellished with elegant adornments, iconography, stained glass windows and extensive mosaics, including a Chapel dedicated to the Theotokos in 1993. The com
