Our Services

Sunday

10:30am: Due to construction, we are currently meeting at 2001 Asbury Rd.

What to Expect

What are services like?
We use the Byzantine Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, which was written in the 4th century. Our services engage all the senses: incense for the nose, icons for the eyes, Byzantine chanting for the ear, veneration for the hands, and Holy Communion for the soul!

What is the community like?
We are a small congregation, but we are very friendly. We come from diverse backgrounds, but share a common faith around our Lord Jesus Christ.

What if I'm not a Christian?
Everyone is welcome to come and see! Though Holy Communion is reserved only for Orthodox Christians, all are invited to come forward and partake of the "artoklasia" bread at the end of the service.
