St Andrew's Orthodox Church

About this church

St. Andrew's Orthodox Church meets at 4633 Glissade Drive in New Port Richey. Great Vespers and confession begin Saturday at 4:00 p.m. On Sunday, the Third and Sixth Hours begin at 9:40 a.m., followed by the Divine Liturgy at 10:00. Services are in English. The parish describes itself as a small, growing, diverse community of the Orthodox Church in America's Diocese of the South.

Visitors are welcome to follow along with service books, and a coffee hour after Sunday worship provides an easy opportunity to ask questions. Orthodox worship commonly involves standing, but seating is available. The parish asks for respectful clothing, notes that women are not required to cover their heads, and asks men to remove hats inside. Communion is reserved according to Orthodox practice, while visitors may receive blessed bread at the end; anyone uncertain should speak with the priest rather than assume. These unusually detailed visitor notes make the official guide worth reading before attending, especially for someone who has never experienced the Divine Liturgy.
