Saint Mary's Byzantine Catholic Church

We are a Byzantine Catholic Church, which means we were founded by our Lord Jesus Christ and  our liturgical tradition is close to 2000 years old and was founded in Constantinople (Byzantium).

We are  fully Catholic and in full communion with the Pope of Rome.  This means that our liturgy satisfies the Sunday obligation of Catholics in any rite in the Catholic Church.  We are part of The Eparchy of Passaic.

All are most welcome. Visitors are highly encouraged. Come pray with us! 

Our church is handicap accessible and there is room in front of the first pew for wheelchairs.  

Pastor:  Very Rev. Eduard Shestak, JCOL, STD

Cantors: Steven T. Dougherty, Ph.D.,  Andrew Drozdik, Maria Manzano, Maureen Manzano 

Our Sunday liturgy is at 11:00 and all are welcome.  We have liturgy in Church Slavonic on the first Thursday of each month (excluding Lent) at 5:30 P.M. We generally have litrugy on the evening before most holy days at 5:30.  

Lent:  Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, Friday 5:30 P.M.
