“Anunț” announces a special celebration. This marks the 25th anniversary of Dr. Levi Marian’s service as pastor. Welcome to the First Romanian Baptist Church. It stands as a beacon of faith.
This church began as a mission in 1973. Pastor Cornel Pascu and his wife Iuliana started it. They wanted to minister to Romanians in New York. The beginning had many difficulties. But God blessed their work with progress. The church grew. It bought its own building.
Cornel Pascu served as pastor until 1979. Then he retired. Aurel Popescu was called to continue the work. He served the Romanian community in New York. He pastored until 1984. Then he moved to Oregon to pastor a church there.
Dumitru Toderic then continued the pastoral ministry. He served until 1992. On October 1 1992 Levi Marian became pastor. He was dedicated to the church for 29 years.
On November 7 2021 Pastor Nelu Țăudan took over. He is the current pastor. The First Romanian Baptist Church continues to thrive. It serves the Romanian community in New York. It is part of the Romanian Baptist Association of the USA and Canada.
