  • I'm not a member. I'm not Orthodox. But this place is a 5/5. If you are considering popping in as a visitor, then I'm writing this review for you. If, like me, you've never been to an Orthodox service before...then let me tell you it's weird. I mean that in the best possible way. I expected that it would be more formal than the Lutheran services I'm used to... but it wasn't really. Each time I've been there kids are strolling around greeting and hugging adults they know, the faithful are moving to and fro and doing whatever rituals the faithful do, Father Andre and his deacons/helpers (?) are performing the liturgy, and I'm standing next to a wall staring at what appears to be a Christian 'Hall of Fame' and praying along to what I'm hearing. Then occasionally something happens and everyone is singing together, praying out loud together, or sitting together to listen to the homily. It's exhilarating to experience everyone 'doing their own thing' yet simultaneously doing it in harmony or even in unity. It's weird and awesome. It doesn't matter how how out of place you think you will be or how out of place you feel when you get there-- you are not out of place. You are in the right place. Every time I've gone someone new introduces themselves, encourages me to eat food and drink coffee, answers questions I have about the service, asks me interested-but-not-intrusive questions about myself, and just basically makes me feel like they had been hoping all week to see or meet me that Sunday. If you go, you will have an experience to remember. And share. On Yelp...
