Parish Background
St Nicholas Church was organized in 1940 by a small group of local Orthodox Christians. In the early years, services were held in a rented house. In 1957, The Church was built at the present location.
The social hall was built in 1960. Every Sunday after Liturgy we enjoy getting together for a cup of coffee and piroshki, meeting our friends, and welcoming visitors to our church. Church activities, for the most part, consist of picnics and pot-lucks.
