Orthodox Church in America

Rev. Michael Korolev

Welcome to the St. Peter & St. Paul Orthodox Church website, portal to a unique tradition. Are you looking for a Church Community? We would be very happy to have you join us at St. Peter & St. Paul Orthodox Church in Springfield, Massachusetts! Our Church strives to live by the message of Christ, in which there are no outcasts and all are welcome. COME AND SEE! The Holy Scripture says, "you shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve" (Matt. 4:10). Notice that worship comes before service. Worshiping God is our very first purpose. Please join us at St. Peter & St. Paul Holy Catholic, Apostolic, Eastern, Orthodox, Christian Church the parish of the Orthodox Church in America for one of the Divine Services (Divine Liturgy & other services in English, with some Slavonic) and see with your own eyes the "Pearl of great price" (Matt. 13:45-46) which we wish to share with you.

 

If you have questions about the Orthodox faith please contact us via our church email (menu "Contact Us"), or feel free to contact our Rector, Fr. Michael Korolev at (413) 734-8472.

We welcome you to St. Peter & St. Paul Orthodox Church! We gladly welcome visitors & inquirers & always have a complimentary meal on Sunday to get acquainted.

"Of all Holy works, the education of children is the most holy", said St. Theophan the Recluse. We, who are blessed by knowing the light of teaching of the Holy Orthodox Church, must feel great aspiration to pass it onto our children, for they could grow up in this Holy light!

The Church School meets every other Saturday at 4:00PM. in the Church hall located downstairs in the Church. Our priest offers age-appropriate religious instruction in the Orthodox faith, in the English and Russian language. With God's help, we hope our youth will progress in wisdom, reason, and every good deed for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ and magnification of His Holy Church.

All learning materials, as well as a snack, will be provided at no charge, though donations, of course, are always welcome.

Parents, please make a commitment to bring your children regularly, while the program goes on they miss many important things!

All are welcome to attend.
