St Nick's is a diverse, friendly, accepting and traditional Episcopal church. The service features a wonderful organ, and the parish likes to sing. There is a solid and growing outreach ministry which is important to the parishioners. And overseeing this is Leigh Hall, the Pastor, an incredibly friendly, engaging and intelligent priest. Parishioners come from all backgrounds looking for a smaller, inclusive and engaged community. The Episcopal traditions are comfortable to Catholics like my wife and kids, where, after 20 years at a local Catholic church, we came to St Nicks fourteen years ago. And my daughter was married at St Nicks in a lovely, celebratory, intimate, packed house. The neighborhood and grounds are also beautiful. Within the last 20 years, the church building and grounds have enjoyed three major capital projects and so now has a solid building and beautiful grounds for its annual church fair and other small activities. Check it out! They will love to embrace you.
My wife and I began attending last January. So we have been here for about a year. Lovely congregation, lovely facility, and very inclusive. We felt welcome from the moment we got there. They are down to earth but also have a strong sense of the sacred. I was also surprised by how many things they had going on. Always something.
Our family has been going to St. Nick's for 10 years, after we had "shopped around" local churches after deciding our previous church was no longer aligning with our values. St. Nick's made us feel welcome and that we belonged. Mother Leigh Hall is uplifting and engaging, which appeals to the congregation, even the children/teenagers!
I have been a parishioner at St Nick’s for about 20 years. Although I was not raised an Episcopalian, once I started attending services there, I immediately felt comfortable.
The sermons are uplifting and thought provoking. Weekly coffee hour provides an opportunity to get to know each other. If you are looking for a true sense of community and to grow your faith, St. Nick’s is the perfect place!
We have been going to St. Nicks since 2012. The Rector, Leigh Hall, has a welcoming way for all who enter. Service is at 10 am on Sunday but there are many other functions. There is Vacation Bible school in the summer, a youth group for teenagers, coffee hour after service, a wonderful view of the Hudson River, contributions are make to the Food Bank and Love Inc. It is a beautiful location for wedding or baptisium's.
