I was greeted by a young woman named Anatolia who was pretty disparaging against Muslim folks and I overheard others saying rude things about other groups. I prefer a church to follow Christ's covenant and not compete or belittle other religions. Christ taught us to love, so I wish the best for them but it is not for me.

Pastors John and Elaine Orlando are so welcoming and loving and are such gifted speakers/preachers. The church used to be located near downtown Hackensack near the middle school, but this location is so much better. They transformed the upstairs of this office building into a gorgeous sanctuary. They have signs out front on Sunday so you will know where to park. Enter through the front door and go up the stairs or take the elevator. Once upstairs, there are rooms for infants and babies (childcare or where parents can go), a room for young kids, a kids ministry section for children through 5th grade, and a teen church area. At the end is the main worship room. The entire church wing is clean and beautifully painted and decorated. There's a waiting area out front as well. I love seeing all the people who attend each week -- from young families to singles to couples and the elderly. All the church staff is welcoming and friendly. They don't bombard you with questions or pressure you to keep coming. They just welcome you and offer you prayer or kind conversation. And if you have a talent to share, they welcome you to play an instrument or assist with church duties upon proper training. Worship begins with song and then a powerful message from Pastor John. He is a talented preacher, and you will be laughing and crying and feeling the Word of God. He's so funny and kind. My child enjoys the kids church and the young adults who lead that service, and my husband and I look forward to Sunday service! We used to go to Catholic Churches, but we really enjoy the family/community feel of this church and the message preached each week. It's truly life changing. They have communion once a month and family night on Wednesdays. Service is each Sunday starting at 11.

The music program is exceptionally strong, with top-notch directors and a roster of professional musicians that rivals those of NYC churches. Every Sunday they deliver concert-quality music, and there are opportunities for singing and playing handbells, at different levels, for anyone who would like to join. The program is excellent, somehow, without being exclusive or elitist. The Director of Children's and Youth Ministry, who runs the youth groups, is hilarious. The kids love him. He finds the right mix of games, lessons and fellowship to engage students, and ensures EVERY student feels welcome and part of the community. Last, but not least, the sermons are first-rate. From the pulpit, I want to learn something and be challenged to change something. I find that at RCB. The sermons are thought-provoking, assume (correctly) a high level of knowledge and sophistication of the congregation, and push each listener to reassess how his/her actions are reflective (or not reflective) of the week's Christian principle. We worried when we moved to the suburbs that we would not find a church that matched our family's differing interests and hopes for a faith community. We need not have. Over the past several years, RCB has become our family's home.

We first started attending GBC in 2011, shortly after moving to Westchester County. We do not…read moreconsider ourselves Baptists, but feel in general that Baptist churches follow the Bible without adding extra "religion". The congregation is on the small side, so we are never lost in a sea of people, or unable to make connections. I'm guessing there are generally between 70 and 140 people who come on any given Sunday. We are often away on the weekends, so cannot be at church every Sunday, and appreciate that we are welcomed warmly and never made to feel badly for not coming more regularly. If you wonder why I am posting this, I just happened upon yelp when I was searching the church online and saw that there is just one review. I thought back to how big a task it felt to find a church in the first place when we moved here. I searched online, knowing Baptist was a solid starting point, and found 3 in a radius around our home. One had no info on their website, and the other looked like it might have last been updated 10 years prior. Not really acceptable in this day and age. GBC had a good website at the time, so we gave it a try and were so pleased to find we were led to the right church on try one! If you are searching for a church, regardless of whether you are a strong believer who is firm in their faith, or one who just doesn't really know what they believe, I assure you, they will welcome you, but also release you. You'll have an opportunity to share your contact information on a card you drop in the offering plate. If you share it, but also note that you don't want to be contacted, they will honor your request. If you share it and ask for more information, they will absolutely follow up with you (but not hound you!). It is truly a Christ filled church. There are young families, singles, older families, elderly, multiples races represented in the congregation. You will fit right in :-)

The spirit of love in this church has deeply touched my family. GBC welcomes everyone. The members serving in the Children's Ministry are loving and sincere. I have twin babies in the nursery, a toddler, and a Kindergartner and I am thrilled with the classroom setting and age-level appropriate BIble teaching that my children receive every week from patient, caring, and loving volunteers. The worship service is from 9:30-10:30 and is followed by a 30 minute visiting/coffee/snack time (snacks are provided). Then from 11-12 children and adults can attend Bible classes - all of which are all wonderful. My husband and I look forward to the adult Bible class every week. It is one of the best we have attended. I cannot say enough about how much we love this church and look forward to Sunday mornings . This church is firmly rooted in Bible teaching and a genuine love for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is extremely family friendly and the genuine spirit of the members speaks for itself. GBC also has great worship (worship music begins at 9:20) - come join us! Check out our website at: http://www.greenwichbaptist.org/

We have all since moved out of the bronx but still visit the Church on a weekly basis and donate cash in the baskets at Mass. I am Baptism a newborn and was told that because I do not have a envelope number I would not be able to be provided a Sponsor Letter. I was told that even mailing 50 cents a week would constitute me as a practicing Catholic. I signed up on line for weekly donations so my name would be attached to the money so the Church could prove my donations. The secretaries are rude and had the audacity to get loud on the phone and hung up on me multiple times. Shouldn't they be a little nicer and respectful to the general public?? The hostility from these people has me baffled. My 3yr old son can recite the Our Father, Hail Mary, and 10 Commandments word for word. That makes me a practicing Catholic. Sharing my faith and teaching the Good Word to my child. Sending money doesn't make me or anyone else a practicing Catholic. Where in the Bible does it say we need to give money to be loved and saved by the Lord Jesus Christ. Yelling and hanging up the phone on people should not be tolerated by anyone especially personnel from the Church. Money doesn't define a Catholic. Your faith, your words, your actions, and how you live out your faith everyday does. Anne, my God knows I practice my Faith everyday and have past it along to my husband and son.
