the sacraments of the orthodox church provide the faithful with the unique experience of God acting upon us.

Sacraments are times when God uniquely enters into our lives.

In order to schedule baptisms and weddings, you must first become a parishioner, by filling out a Stewardship Card, which you can find by clicking the button below.


BAPTISM

Baptism is the sacrament by which we enter into the Christian Faith. It is through baptism that we “lay aside all earthly cares, that we may receive the King of all”. Baptism is a spiritual death and rebirth, a mystical sharing in the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.


The wedding service is the mystical sacramental union of a man and a woman to each other. The Orthodox Church understands this mystery as performed by God Himself in uniting two souls into one. This joyous sacrament of the Church has many steps of preparation, so we recommend couples begin speaking with our clergy early in the wedding planning process.

Confession

The sacrament of confession is the means by which our souls are purified of all errors and affronts to God. It is known piously as “a second baptism” and is an opportunity for us to unburden ourselves of our sins in this life, in order that they not be held against us in the next. Our clergy hear confessions by appointment; call the office to schedule.
