Very friendly Priest and Deacon, pious and reverent Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom… no complaints, wonderful Church
My father was an organist here back in the 90s. We'd come to church with him whenever we were with him for a weekend. Sang in the choir and attended the mass. Was very welcoming back then. I'm sure it still is. Beautiful church and a beautiful service. Big heart of the Syrian and Lebanese Catholic community.
Old fashion, catholic church connected to the Syrian Lebanese, community, the best place to be with family and friends, and to receive the word of God. In the name of Jesus, please be there join us every Sunday for coffee and tea because I’m a member I would love to see you there
Father Antoine is a wonderful spiritual friend. The church is a lovely landmark.
Byzantine / Greek Catholic - Very beautiful Liturgy- English primarily
A welcoming atmosphere, friendly people and comfortable environment are the start of the Church.
Father Antoine leads the Sunday School program along with a few of the most patient moms you would want your children around. They teach the children about Jesus' love for us.
The Mass is bilingual (English and Arabic), and after Mass, please feel free to go downstairs for the coffee hour where you have a chance to mingle with one of the more diverse group you'll ever meet.
Must visit at least once to experience it.
God bless you

I actually haven't been there, but I am watching the divine liturgy on my Roku. I appreciate the fact, that a lot of Arabic is being used, given that's the official language of the melkite church. I'm not sure how I feel about the church organ, I feel like that's a bit of a Latinisation. I am not saying it's wrong, I'm just saying it's a little funny to me. Anyway, I'm glad y'all are sharing that ancient Middle Eastern tradition with the inhabitants of New York. I have a melkite church not too far where I live, and I'm always glad to visit, if I would have known that Eastern Catholics existed when I became a Catholic, I probably would have become one. As it is, I'm content with the venerable Latin tradition. Anyway, God bless y'all.
I love the beautifully sung liturgy, stunning Byzantine icons, elaborate mosaics, thoughtful homilies by the prayerful pastor, and the warmly welcoming families in this parish.
