Historical Photos: Father John’s Ordination, Board, School Association, Clergy
During the summer, we are featuring photo archives from our church over the years. From our early days in West New York, through our current church in Paramus. We’ll be naming as many of the identifiable names that we can.
We hope you enjoy them.
