We are a worshipping community of the Eastern Orthodox Christian Tradition. We proclaim the Truth given to us by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We preserve the theology of the Nicene Creed and teachings of the early church established by the apostles and bishops from the beginning, as given to them directly from Jesus Christ. We participate in corporate liturgical & sacramental worship services and practice the ancient personal traditions for spiritual life and growth.
Every person is created in the image and likeness of God. Through salvation in Jesus Christ we are adopted into One Family – One Body – A New Creation. We are energized by the Holy Spirit to love God and love one another unconditionally, without judgment, and invite all people to join His holy family that includes all Christians past, present, and future.
We join all Orthodox Christians around the world to participate in the beautiful and heavenly liturgical services and regularly receive the grace of God through the holy sacraments. We personally practice prayer, fasting, giving to the poor, and works of mercy making our entire life a prayer to God.
We are all connected one to another and to God. It is a divine and human fellowship of love and life. There is a place for people of every age and stage of life to connect at St. Nicholas.
God made us in love to love. We manifest this reality through intentional and meaningful ministry opportunities to build up all the members of our church family. We invite our surrounding community to come and learn about God’s Love and the fullness of the Christian faith. We also walk out our doors to meet the community where they are and help them discover God’s love, together.
