The Friends of Saint Nicholas was established in December 2019 in order to raise, invest, and disburse funds for the construction and further improvement of the Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine at the World Trade Center.
The Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine is located at the World Trade Center, adjacent to the 9/11 memorial. Its beacon of light shines from high atop Liberty Park.
Saint Nicholas will be rebuilt as more than the humble Greek Orthodox Church of lower Manhattan; it is being rebuilt as a National Shrine and place of pilgrimage for our Nation.
Every month, we will honor those who have played a special role in contributing to making the Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine a reality.
