Welcome to the Christ the Saviour Orthodox Church Website

Parish If you are an Orthodox Christian, We are glad to welcome you to Christ the Savior Parish. If you are not Orthodox, we invite you to come and experience the special blessings of Orthodoxy with us.

All our worship services are in English!

Our parish has roots in Eastern Europe, but our worship, life, and ministry are in English. Therefore, we reach out to and include people in America from all backgrounds. No matter what your religious history, you will find that the Christ the Savior parish offers timeless Christianity for today! Our proclamation of the Gospel of salvation, our worship of the Holy Trinity, and our teaching of the way of Jesus Christ go all the way back to the Apostles. Yet they speak to the deepest needs and concerns of modern people like yourself.

Many Americans are attracted to the Orthodox way because it brings to them a deep spirituality, a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, a close fellowship with other Christians, and the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit. Moreover, Orthodoxy provides a firm foundation for one’s life.

We realize that Orthodoxy may be familiar to some people but strange to many more in America. We are glad to answer your questions and to address your concerns. We hope that you will contact us and, most important, visit us soon! God bless you!

Monday, March 04, 2019

Our parish is overjoyed that iconographer Brian Matthew Whirledge has completed and installed two new icons of the Communion of the Apostles /Mystical Supper on the back wall of the altar area. It has been a goal of Fr. Jonathan's to bring more opportunities to experience God here in the home parish.
