Our Town

Residents, as well as visitors staying at the community's many fine hotels and motels, can be in Manhattan in as little as 20 minutes via express bus. Or they quickly can be on their way to other points in via the New Jersey Turnpike or State Route 3, both of which pass through the town.

And just across the Hackensack River, a mile away, is the area's sports and entertainment center, The Meadowlands, home of the Giants, the Jets, concerts, circuses, ice shows, weekly flea market; and the Meadowlands Race Track.

Location! Location! Location! What makes Secaucus great for residents and visitors also makes it great for business. Secaucus is the corporate home of many major businesses and a distribution center serving Manhattan and Northern New Jersey. Its proximity to New York offers quick delivery.

This distribution center, cleverly separated from most of the town's residential areas, has spawned the other activity for which the community was once well known - outlet shopping. Outlets have greatly deminished in number. However, along with the manufacturers' outlets, you'll find the true warehouse outlets, where the store's in the front and racks of clothes are behind. Periodically the storehouses themselves are opened for that shopper's dream, a real warehouse sale!

The town has not neglected it's traditional business center, which residents call The Plaza. Flowers are pridefully planted in park areas in the center of town, where a beautification program was undertaken a few year's ago. There, businesses thrive, many in the hands of local families who have served their customers for generations.

Harmon Meadow, at the eastern side of Secaucus, has a pleasant town square atmosphere. There, you'll find many restaurants, some shops, a number of the major hotels, an attactive multiplex cinema and the Meadowlands Exposition Center. Nearby are the convenient big box stores that draw thousands of shoppers.

Secaucus has also become a communications hub, home of NBA Entertainment (and NBA draft), Major League Baseball Network, MY Channel 9 and news bureaus for other networks.

Sports and recreation abound for town residents. There's a swim center for summer and an ice rink for winter and a Recreation Center for year round activities. There's a soccer field and a roller hockey rink. There's a boat ramp into the Hackensack River. There are gyms and fields and organized teams for virtually all outdoor and indoor sports.

Nature is preserved in areas large and small; Snipes Beach Park, The Duck Pond, Schmidts Woods, and a major Meadowlands preserve, Mill Creek Marsh, in the northern sector of the town. The trailhead of the 1.5-mile long Mill Creek Marsh Trail is located adjacent to the big box stores, providing access for birding especially. With its patches of marsh grasses, mud flats and long winding brackish waterways, the Meadowlands is home to 260 bird species, including 15 state-endangered species.

Canoe and kayak trips through the meadows are available at Laurel Hill Hudson Country Park in Secaucus. The Hackensack Riverkeeper (201-920-4746) rents canoes and kayaks on weekends from April through October. The Hackensack Riverkeeper Cruise Program, (201-968-0808) offers two-hour guided naturalist trips on the river and through the marshes of the Meadowlands The park also boasts two floating docks and the only free, unrestricted public boat ramp on the River. The Meadowlands Enviornment Center is a short drive from Secaucus. More on eco-tourism.

While sports and recreation serve the young, the town has also remembered its older residents. Secaucus has led the State in Senior housing. Three major Senior Citizen residences and a Senior activity center serve the needs of those who have served the town.

Secaucus is community centered, with clubs and organizations - Kiwanis, Rotary, Lions, Masons, Unico. etc. One can become active with the Shade Tree Commission, or any number of other organizations. The Volunteer Fire Department is a focal point of activity and civic pride.

Secaucus offers fine schools for its children. There are two public elementary schools and a middle-high school. There, children get a caring education and are offered a range of extra curricular activities. The new Arthur F. Couch Performaning Arts Center was opened at the High Schoool/Middle School facility in 2005. There is a library preschool and day care centers for the town's youngest. The public school system uniquely offers full day kindergarten and pre-kindergarten programs.

The Secaucus Public Library and Business Resource Center offers outstanding facilities for research and recreational reading, plus ample computer facilities with free wi-fi access, a small-business center and meeting rooms.

Eight churches and a Hindu temple serve the religious needs of the community. The Episcopal Church of Our Saviour, First Reformed, Immaculate Conception Roman Catholic, St. Matthew's Evangelical Lutheran and Shree Swaminarayan Hindu Temple each maintain their own religious centers. Quimby Community Church meets at The Church of Our Saviour, and North Jersey United Pentecostal Church meets at the First Reformed Church.

All this and more in a town of 16,000 residents! It's a great place to live, work, raise a family, and a great place to visit.

Beloved, David once faced a Lion that was the champion of the forest and killed it. This was what gave David the boldness to confront Goliath the champion of the city saying to him that the Lord who gave me strength and wisdom to kill a Lion & a bear that attacked my flocks the same Almighty God will give me wisdom and strength needed to do the same thing to Goliath of Gad.

Your ability to achieve a particular goal is a function of the ones you have achieved in the past through the help of the Almighty God. When the Lord decided to move us from the FIRST AUDITORIUM at the Redemption Camp, there were many people who felt that the auditorium we were moving from was the biggest they had ever seen or had. Also, when the Lord decided to move us away from the SECOND AUDITORIUM to the ARENA where we presently worship, many said it was impossible, but it happened. Today, the Lord is set to move us to a bigger arena because the children need to occupy the present one.

Many of us have lost our miracles because we stopped too soon. A divine champion sets goals believing that with God, nothing shall be impossible (Luke 1:37). I have been challenged by people who say, what we want to do now is impossible. The moment you say it is impossible; I will want to show you that it is possible. It could take some sweating, fasting, night vigils and a little extra effort, but whatever goals divine champions set before God, they will get it. As a divine champion, it is not all the time you set a goal that you realize it at first instance. Many times, you have to try and try over and over again before you succeed. The important thing is that as a child of God you will win at the endand there is a reward of everlasting victory and permanent joy for every divine champion that achieves his divine goals.

To this end I want to encourage you to join hands with us in completing our NEW AUDITORIUM and if you are ready kindly click on NEW AUDITORIUM to put in your widows mite. You can also click on NEHEMIAH BUILDERS to join a number of committed brethren who had decided to task themselves a little bit more to ensure we achieved this goal for the Lord our God in our time. God bless you in Jesus name.

Let somebody shout Hallelujah!

Patrick Scott, one of three choir masters and organists at the Episcopal Cathedral of St. Phillip in Atlanta, Ga., plays the new $750,000 organ in the sanctuary at First United Methodist Church in Tuscaloosa, Ala. on Wednesday April 8, 2015. The final touches were completed on the organ Thursday April 2. On Sunday April 11 at 3 p.m. First United Methodist Church will hold a consecration service, Death and Resurrection, open to the public for the organ and the new grand piano. Scott will be one of two guest organists at the service. The second organist is Dr. Will Young, the director of music at First Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, N.C. staff photo | Erin Nelson

First United Methodist Church of Tuscaloosa was without an organ for almost two years as it awaited the construction of a custom-built, 2,580-pipe organ. It took almost two months to install, but the church will celebrate its new $750,000 organ on Sunday afternoon with a public concert featuring the organ, a new grand piano, a 25-piece orchestra and the church's 50- member choir.

For James Seay, director of music and worship, the new organ has been a labor of love. The former organ, built in 1929, had been rehabilitated once in the 1970s, but certain parts no longer worked, and it had a pierced sound to it, Seay said. Although some of the original pipes were re-scaled and reused, the organ itself is a new instrument.

"With the old organ, there were things that were no longer functioning the way they were meant to function, and it was designed for a style of music that we no longer celebrate in traditional music," Seay said. "We wanted a more romantic sound to it, one that had more of a warmth to it."

The original organ was removed in September 2013. The new organ was custom built in Tennessee using pipes from around the world and an organ blower that was once used at the Kennedy Center, Seay said. The new organ, a Randall Dyer and Associates Inc. Opus 98, has 45 ranks, and more than two-thirds of the organ is encapsulated in giant wooden shades that open to make the sound larger or softer.

"Typically, it takes years for an organ to be built," Seay said. "All of the wooden construction, all the carpentry was done in house, the facade, the electrical work, they do everything by hand. It is a massive undertaking."

Installation of the new organ began in February and was finished last week in time for Holy Week services.

"We are so excited to have the organ back," said the Rev. Ken Dunivant, senior pastor. "The piano has been great, but the organ fills the whole sanctuary with energy, joy and excitement."

Sunday's celebration concert will feature three works, including "A Joyful Son" which was commissioned by world-renowned composer Rene Clausen, Seay said. The text for the anthem was Psalm 98, which is perfect for the church's new Opus 98 organ, Seay said. Another work, Requiem by Maurice Durufle, was selected to display the organ's capabilities.

"It is a masterwork that highlights the capabilities of the organ and the beauty of the instrument, and uses every color that our organ has," Seay said.
