About St. Alexander Nevsky church


St. Alexander Nevsky church was established in 1936 with the blessing of the then-ruling Archbishop Vitaly (Maksimenko), and has since remained under the auspices of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (ROCOR), which is headquartered in New York. The parish is part of the New Jersey Deanery within the Eastern American Diocese and, since September 2014, serves as the Diocesan Center.
