| The
Orthodox Christian church of the Dormition of the Theotokos in Concord
celebrated its first Vigil and Divine Liturgy on the Feast of the
Dormition of our Lady, August 15/28, 1981. Then and thereafter, the
clergy and laity of the parish have placed themselves under the mighty
protection of the most holy Mother of God.
At the time the first
Liturgy was celebrated, the church was a small temple occupying a room
just 12 x 15 foot on the first floor of the priest's house. Since then,
the parish has grown and after much struggle and prayer, a building was
purchased in June of 1993. Currently,
the Dormition of the Theotokos parish is comprised of families from
Greek, Russian, and English descent, with many converts to the Orthodox
faith. The full yearly cycle of Orthodox Christian services are celebrated according to the Traditional Ecclesiastical calendar.
The
parish is a member of the Holy Orthodox Church in North America under
the Omophorion of His Emminence, Ephraim, the Metropolitan of Boston.
Vistors are always welcome to our services and a community meal is held each Sunday immediately following the Divine Liturgy. Glory be to God for all things!

"In giving birth thou didst preserve thy virginity; in thy dormition thou didst not forsake the world, O Theotokos;
Thou wast translated unto life,
since thou art the Mother of life;
and by thine intercessions,
dost thou redeem our souls from death." |
