About Us
It is our mission to bring our neighbors and those who walk through our doors into a deeper understanding of the Christian faith, and in particular, the Eastern Orthodox Church. We generally provide three to four weekly Divine Liturgies as well as a good portion of the cycle of services. We also celebrate the 12 major Church feasts and participate in the prescribed fasts. Our doors are open to people of all walks of life, and our church membership includes converts and cradle Orthodox, and represents varied cultures including Russian, Greek, Bulgarian, Serbian, Mexican, Japanese, Romanian, and more.
