Holy Apostles Orthodox Church is a parish of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (ROCOR), founded with the purpose of bringing the Gospel and Divine Services of the Russian Orthodox Church to the people of America in the English language. We invite you to come to any of the Divine Services or events at our mission church. In 2009 we were gifted a beautiful, historic chapel and two-acre campus by the Christian Brothers. Our vision is to establish the parish in its new home, from where the parish can continue to thrive and grow as a living icon of Orthodox missions in America.
Dear Family of the Parish of Holy Apostles
We approach the celebration of the Incarnation of Christ in His Nativity through the Blessed and All-Glorious and Ever-Virgin Mary, His most pure mother. As we continue to lift our hands in supplication to her on our behalf, we encounter the climax of her office among us in bringing our Savior forth in her womb. With the shepherds and the magi we kneel and offer him all gifts, recognizing that nothing can equal our Lord's gift of Himself.
We are grateful to our neighbors, the people of St. John's Episcopal Church, for opening their facilities for our reception after our Nativity Divine Liturgy this Saturday. We hope that everyone can take advantage of this opportunity to gather for close and festal fellowship. The service books say, "And the faithful shall fare sumptously," We look forward to the day when we ourselves can house this reception in our own facilities. Let us never flag in our beseeching the Mother of God to grant the fulfillment of this our desire under the protection of her wonderworking image, the Hawaiian Iveron Icon "Portaitissa".
With love in our Lord,
Fr. George
