On Tuesday, August 13, the parish was invited to the Serbalik camp at Lake George for an outing… Several people came, enjoyed a boat ride on Lake George, a festive meal and time for swimming and sunbathing… The weather couldn’t be better… We thank the Serbaliks for always having us up annually at their camp for fun and frolic.

Saturday’s May 11th flea market was a huge success. A few thousand people passed through the rows of vendors perusing the tables and purchasing great deals. Our ethnic and grill food sold out very quickly, as well as the bake sale. We look forward to the September flea market.

Services during Holy Week were all well attended. 86 people attended the 8am morning Paschal vigil. Many stayed for the Agape meal at the end to break the fast and we honored two of our nonagenarians Alice Lyons and recently turned 90 Dorothy Bellrose.

Welcome to St Nicholas Orthodox Church! We hope you will enjoy your visit. We are a parish of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), serving Christ in the Cohoes and Greater Albany Capital Region. Our liturgical services are primarily in English with small sections in Church Slavonic, Romanian, Greek or Arabic depending on the needs of the congregation at that time.
Our parish has an average of 35 people for a Sunday Liturgy with an outreach of over 100 who come to our church at some point in the church year. Our church is mainly composed of second and third generation people with origins from Lemkovyna (a region now part of Ukraine, Poland and Slovakia).
Recently, our church has become the spiritual home of a smattering of immigrants from Romania, Macedonia, Georgia, Moldova, Belarus, Russia and our own community here in America. Our mission is to expand our Christian family by embracing all people who want to share a life in Christ and to be the home for people of all backgrounds.
