TRAFFIC ADVISORY! - This Sunday is Bloomsday! If your usual route takes you through downtown Spokane, you may want to plan ahead and consider an alternate path to church
services.
For those who must travel through downtown, we recommend leaving earlier to account for potential road closures and delays.
Safe travels, and we look forward to seeing you at church!
"Every Sunday at St Nicholas is a Bloomsday, the race to our eternal home. Finish the race and you are welcomed to the winner's circle.
Just as Super Bowl Sunday is a championship event, at St Nicholas we have a weekly Super Bowl, and Christ is the championship
trophy. "
-- Reader David (Charles Roth) |
Mother's Day and Father's Day Pre-sanctified Mass Visits
- We are thrilled to share that Dn. Elijah will be returning to Saint
Nicholas Orthodox Church on Mother's Day, May 11th, and Father's Day, June 15th.
We look forward to his presence as he officiates the pre-sanctified Mass on those special days.
Please join us in extending a heartfelt welcome upon his return!
Stay tuned for further updates.
Fr. Fenton, Priest-in-Charge |
Upcoming Visits
- Our priest-in-charge, Fr. Fenton, has graciously committed to visiting us monthly to celebrate Mass, hear confessions,
and provide pastoral care to those in need until a permanent priest is assigned to our church family.
We’ll keep you updated on his next scheduled visit, which we hope will be by the end of this month (May).

An Invitation to Support Our Beloved Church and Clergy
Saint Nicholas created three important reserve funds:
|
- Clergy Travel Expense Fund—This fund covers the monthly travel expenses of our priest-in-charge, Fr. Fenton, and Deacon Elijah.
- New Priest Reserve
Fund – Each month, 25% of our net operating reserves will be set aside in anticipation of welcoming a new priest. When a permanent priest is assigned to our parish, these funds will help cover moving and travel expenses, housing allowances, insurance, and professional needs.
- Maintenance Reserve Fund –
We are currently obtaining estimates for:
- A fence around our parking lot
- A fence around our church property
- Sprinkler system repairs
|
- Given recent and concerning activity in our neighborhood, we believe it is necessary to enhance our security by pairing our new video surveillance system with fenced-in parking and church grounds, secured with locked gates.
Additionally, damage to our sprinkler system has been discovered. To
ensure the upkeep of our grounds and foliage, prompt repairs are needed.
With your generous support, we can fund these vital improvements and continue fostering the spiritual growth and well-being of our beloved Saint Nicholas Orthodox community. All donations, no matter the amount, are a cherished blessing and deeply appreciated.
Together, we can strengthen and sustain our parish.
