  It is with deep sorrow that we must inform you of the passing of John Bilyk, a long time member of the Community Reformed Church of Teaneck and Second Reformed Church. As per his son Peter there will be a private family service on Saturday, November 2nd.
Please remember the Bilyk family in your thoughts and prayers along with the host of people whom he loved, as we give thanks to God for John’s life and the many ways he served God faithfully. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

 Thanks to Brian Tricoli for sharing his wonderful talent by playing several pieces for us for solo handbells.
Deacon Michelle Hickey did a beautiful job leading us in worship and delivered her sermon on Laity Sunday:
Laity Sunday focuses on the celebration of the ministry of all Christians, especially those who aren't ministers of Word and sacrament. It offers a chance for members of all ages to pause and consider their own unique calling to ministry within the community of believers.
Second's After School Program
We covet your prayers for the grand opening of our After School program on September 17. We are creating a warm and welcoming place in which the youth (5th and 6th graders) of Hackensack can grow academically and socially. If you would like to volunteer, please contact the church office.
  Our ministers, Reverends Anna and Dwayne Jackson
 We remember and give thanks for those members of the church who have gone before us to be with the Lord. We are comforted, as the Scriptures remind us, that both in life and in death we belong to the Lord. (Rom. 14:8).
We pray that God will make complete the union of our departed ones and Himself, and that we might one day share in the same eternal communion. We call to remembrance those members of the church who departed since we last observed All Saints Sunday:
