I NEED HELP

Me and my fh are looking for Greek Orthodox churches and I cant find one that is big enough ( Im catholic so im used to big churches). I always dreamt walking down a long aisle but i am unable to find one that is long enough. Is there anyone here having a Greek Orthodox ceremony? If yes can you please help me out.

Re: I NEED HELP

Would you consider Queens or Brooklyn?

I think there is a Greek Orthodox Church on Northern Boulevard in Queens - not far from Bayside though I am not sure. I am willing to bet there is some sort of listing of Greek Orthodox Churches in the NY/LI area. I know there is a listing of synogogues. Do a search and see what you come up with.

The church Goldi (Leslie) is referring to is St. Nicholas. It is in Flushing on Northern right off Francis Lewis Blvd.

That's the one I was going to suggest - it's right next door to Oasis Cafe. I went to a wedding there, and it's huge.

Otherwise, here are two in Brooklyn (the final one my family are members of:)
1) Holy Cross - Bay Ridge
2) St. Nicholas - Downtown Brooklyn
