How to Become a Member of this Parish

Our parish by-laws state:

“All Orthodox Christians of both sexes, regardless of their nationality, who have reached the age of 21 years, who financially support the parish, who make their confession and take Holy Communion not less than once a year, and who tend to the moral and economic welfare of the parish may become parish members.”

We have membership forms available in the Narthex of the Church, and so you need only meet the above requirements, and complete that form to declare your membership, in order to be a member of our parish.

Being a member of the Parish, in good standing, allows you to vote at annual Parish meetings, and to serve on the Parish Council.

If you are not Orthodox, but are interested in becoming an Orthodox Christian, speak to the priest.
