Glorifying God Through Worship, Faith, and Fellowship
"For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." — Matthew 18:20
We are Orthodox Christians who worship in the Albanian tradition, carrying forward the faith and culture of our ancestors.
A community of faith, hope, and love
We are a community of believers dedicated to worshiping God in the ancient and beautiful traditions of the Albanian Orthodox Church. Our parish is named after the Holy Prophet Elijah (Shën Ilia), whose unwavering faith and devotion to God serve as an inspiration to us all.
Whether you are a lifelong Orthodox Christian or simply curious about the Orthodox faith, we welcome you with open arms. Join us as we celebrate the Divine Liturgy, participate in the sacraments, and grow together in our love for Christ and one another.
Our church serves as a spiritual home for Albanian Orthodox Christians and all who seek the beauty of Orthodox worship. We are committed to preserving our rich cultural heritage while sharing the timeless message of the Gospel with the wider community.
Anchored in the traditions of the Albanian Orthodox Church, we celebrate the Divine Liturgy and the sacraments in the fullness of the Orthodox faith.
A warm, welcoming family of believers who support one another in faith, fellowship, and service to our neighbors and the wider community.
Carrying forward the rich spiritual and cultural legacy of the Albanian Orthodox tradition, preserving it for generations to come.
