MINISTRIES & GROUPS
For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
​​
Romans 12:4-5
The ministries of Holy Apostles flow from our worship together. Each ministry represents a unique way that our community members support one another, serve those in need, and grow together in faith. Through ministry work, we share our differing gifts and walk our Christian path in deeper fellowship and connection.
We believe that everyone has a part to play in building up the Body of Christ. Whether teaching our youth, singing in the choir, packing meals for those in need, or extending hospitality to visitors, each ministry contributes to our shared journey of transformation in Christ.
​​
We invite you to explore these opportunities for connection and service. Our ministries provide varied opportunities for both service and spiritual growth, creating spaces where authentic Orthodox Christian community can flourish. Whether you're new to Orthodox Christianity or a longtime parish member, there's a place for you to share your gifts and grow in faith through our parish ministries.
