Once again we were blessed to have our Archbishop here for his presence and his blessings July 9th and 10th. 55 people were in church to welcome and pray with our bishop and to participate in the Divine Liturgy. At the end of the liturgy we blessed 4 Icons: Saint Theodora of Romania, Saint Nina of Georgia, Saint Justin martyr and Saint Tatiana of Rome. Grammotas were presented to Catherine Bradwell, Barbara Gerzonich and the choir of St. Nicholas church for their outstanding service.

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.
