Welcome to the Ancient Faith

Our parish is part of the ancient Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch where St. Luke in the Book of Acts tells us the believers were called “Christians” for the first time (Acts 11:26).

Icon of Jesus Christ

Come join us to see and experience for yourself the divine services in the fullness of the faith.

New to the faith?

What is Orthodoxy?
Orthodox Christianity is the ancient Christian faith centered on Jesus Christ, His Resurrection, and life in His Church. Its worship, teachings, and sacramental life continue the faith handed down by the Apostles. At St. Luke, we invite you to discover that faith by joining us in prayer and worship.
What can I expect when entering the church for the first time?
You will encounter icons, candles, incense, chanting, Scripture readings, and prayers. People may make the sign of the cross, bow, or venerate icons. You are welcome to observe and listen without knowing every custom. Let someone know you are visiting, and feel free to ask questions after the service.
What is the proper dress and clothing attire?
Choose modest, respectful clothing that is comfortable for worship. You do not need special clothing to visit, and there is no need to purchase an outfit. Comfortable shoes are helpful because Orthodox worship includes standing. If you have questions about parish customs, please contact us.
Is the church accommodating to families with children?
Children and families are welcome to worship with us. We understand that children make noise and need time to become familiar with services. Parents may step out briefly when needed and return when ready. Please ask a parish member or our clergy if your family needs assistance.

Troparion of St Luke

“Let us praise with sacred songs the holy Apostle Luke, the recorder of the joyous Gospel of Christ and the scribe of the Acts of the Apostles, for his writings are a testimony of the Church of Christ: He is the physician of human weaknesses and infirmities. He heals the wounds of our souls, and constantly intercedes for our salvation!”
