General Info
The Russian Orthodox Church of Three Saints, the first Orthodox parish chartered in Garfield and in Bergen County, celebrated its 100th Anniversary in September of 1998. The church was founded in 1898 by Russian immigrants, mostly from the region of the Carpathian Mountains in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Today's parishioners include: first, second, and third generation families of those immigrants; converts to the faith; and recent immigrants from Russia. Named in honor of 3 fourth-century church Hierarchs, the founding of the Three Saints Church is connected to the lives of three more recent saints: Saint TIKHON (Belavin), Saint ALEXANDER Hotovitzky and Saint ALEXIS Tovt. A Patriarchal Parish of the Moscow Patriarchate, the parish today is under the pastoral care of Very Rev. George Konyev and the loving ways of Matushka Alexandra Hnatkow-Konyev. Also serving in our parish is Father Protodeacon Daniel Sudol. Parish properties, business affairs, and social events are managed by the elected Church Committee, Mark Wolchko, President. The history of the Three Saints Church is shaped by the events of the parish as well as by the issues of the history of the Russian Orthodox Church in the United States. The Centennial history of the Three Saints Church is related in two parts. The first highlights parish life from 1898 to the present. The second summarizes the history of Orthodoxy and its influences on the parish.
