ABOUT OUR CHURCH

     With gratitude to our loving God for our first century (almost) here in the Hanover Section of Nanticoke, we look joyfully ahead to embarking in 2011 on our second century of witnessing the Truth in love to those hungry for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are a growing community with over 60 adults and some young people too. With so many wonderful fruitful years behind us, our tradition of hospitality and love in the Lord is what will sustain us into our second century for the glory of God.

It is not hard to see all around us that there is a very genuine need for the Orthodox Church in this area. People are thirsting for the Truth, and too often not finding its authentic expression within the Christianity of our day. With a firm trust in Our Lord's guidance and loving providence, we pray that our humble witness of presence and action for His people will welcome those who hunger for His Truth to experience its fullness in the liturgical and spiritual life of this community.

We welocme you to share in this experience of the fullness of Christian worship. If you are without a spiritual home, there is a place for you in ours. Come grow with us into another blessed century.

The Orthodox Church is evangelical, but not Protestant. It is Orthodox, but not Jewish. It is Catholic, but not Roman. It is not non-denominational, it is pre-denominational. It has been believed, taught, preserved, defended, and died for. It is the Faith that has established the universe...

Still unsure what we are all about? Looking for some answers? Not sure what to expect?  Pay us a visit, anytime. We are here for you. Our schedule of services and special events is just over in the menu to the left of your screen. Take a look and come join us.

St. John the Baptist Orthodox Church is a parish of the Diocese of Eastern Pennsylvania, of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA).
