An Orthodox parish of the old country, planted in the new

Faith, stitched
into every week.


Three generations of one parish family — the babas who built it, the kids in the choir loft, and a seat at the table for you.


The order of services

Sung in English and a little Slavonic


Saturday 17:00

Great Vespers, followed by confessions by candlelight.

Sunday 9:30

Divine Liturgy — then trapeza in the hall, and nobody leaves hungry.

Wednesday 18:30

Moleben and parish study — this season, the Gospel of Luke.

Feast days varies

Festal Liturgies as announced — check the bulletin or call Pani Maria.

The parish hall

Where the second half of Sunday happens


Pierogi Fridays

First Friday monthly. Four hundred dozen, hand-pinched, sold out by noon — come early or befriend a baba.

Church school

Sundays after communion. Catechism, icon corners, and the annual Nativity play with its legendary sheep costume.

The embroidery guild

Tuesdays at ten. Rushnyky, vestments, and the long memory of the parish, one stitch at a time.

The parish family outside after Liturgy

“Where two or three are gathered, there am I — and someone has already put the kettle on.”

Matthew 18:20 · parish proverb appended

Come on Sunday

The green door under the cross

22 Harvest Street. Park along the fence, come in through the green door, and stand wherever feels right. After Liturgy someone will hand you coffee and a plate — resistance is not recommended.
