The York Christian Orthodox Community

 

The Community of St Constantine the Great meets at the Chapel of York St. John University. Occasionally, when the Chapel is in use for another purpose we meet elsewhere on the campus. A notice is then posted on the door of the Chapel

You can find details of our regular services here

The Community produces a monthly calendar which lists the major saints commemorated on each day, including those for the British Isles, details of the appointed readings for the day and a note on the fasting rules. Click here to view the calendar.

Students of both the University of York and York St. John University are welcome, as are students at the language schools in the city, and any members of all Orthodox churches in communion with the Ecumenical Patriarch are also welcome. The liturgical language in use is English. 

Enquirers are welcome to join us at the Divine Liturgy, and make themselves known to us. We look forward to meeting you!

Clergy:

Fr Æthelwine is a priest of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch. He and Matoushka Susanna are much travelled in the Middle East, where our Patriarch, His Beatitude Ignatios IV, has his Patriarchate in Damascus.

Reverend Deacon Michael and Reverend Deacon Peter, both members of the Patriarchate of Antioch, were ordained last year by His Excellency Metropolitan Kallistos of Diocleia by permission of our Patriarch, His Beatitude Ignatios IV of Antioch and All the East, and His Eminence Archbishop Gregorios of Thyateira and Great Britain.
