About Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church
-
Welcome!
We are an Orthodox Christian community under the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew), the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America (His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios), and the Holy Metropolis of New Jersey (His Eminence Metropolitan Evangelos).
We are the 6th oldest Greek Orthodox community in the United States (established in 1901), and we are located in Elkins Park, a charming northern suburb of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
OUR MISSION
"To proclaim the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, sanctify the faithful through worship and the Holy Sacraments, grow the church by inviting and receiving new members, live the Orthodox Christian Faith, and serve humanity through Christ-centered ministries."
OUR VISION
"To be a loving, caring, and welcoming community, the light of Jesus Christ to the whole world, “a city set on a hill” (Matthew 5:14), where all belong and grow in the Orthodox Christian Faith through worship, witness, fellowship and service to others."
