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! 

Glory be to "Come and                  "
