Home | Holy Cross Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church

Hello and Welcome!

Thank you for visiting Holy Cross Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church's Web Site. Our mission is to be faithful to Our Lord Jesus Christ, who commanded, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19. Our parish is a young one, founded in 2006 to minister to the Orthodox community of Greenville and surrounding areas.

The Eucharist, the partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ, is the focus of Orthodox practice and worship. Holy Communion is offered at every Divine Liturgy. In addition to the holy services, Holy Apostles offers many other opportunities to worship and honor God. These include special services as well as participation in Christian Education programs that we offer throughout the year.

Are you new to the community? We invite you and your family to attend and hope that you will find a home here. We look forward to your presence as we gather to pray and worship as a community of faith. It is our hope that you will hear your own call to witness and serve Christ with us. Our ministries and organizations have places for many different talents and gifts - yours are needed. Whatever great or small the time you can devote to our parish, you do in His name, and we are grateful for your participation.

Message From the Parish Council

Dear Parishioners,

It is with some sadness and great joy that we prepare to say goodbye to Fr. Angelo who will be moving to California this summer to be with his family and new grandchild.

Frf. Angelo's last liturg with us will be on Sunday June 12th - Holy Pentecost

Matins at 9 am

Divine Liturgy at 10 am

Archbishop Alexios is committed to finding us a new priest. Archbishop Alexios remains on medical leave due to health issues but the Chancellor Fr. George Tsahakis and the itinerant Bishop, Bishop Sebastien, will be visiting Holy Apostles on Wednesday June 29th to celebrate the Church's feast day.

On that day we will celebrate a Divine Liturgy at 5 pm immediately followed by a Town Hall Meeting with Fr. George and Bishop Sebastien in the Church Hall. Dinner will be provided by the council for that town hall meeting.

We look forward to seeing you at some or all of these very important events. Christos Anesti!

Sincerely,

Your Parish Council
