Sts Peter and Paul Greek Orthodox Church

About this church

Sts. Peter and Paul Greek Orthodox Church in Frederick, Maryland, worships on Saturdays at 5:00 PM with Vespers and on Sundays with Orthros at 8:30 AM followed by Divine Liturgy at 10:00 AM. The Divine Liturgy is described as the heart of the church's life and the best service for first-time visitors, and it typically runs about an hour and a half. Services are in English with some Greek, and liturgy books are in the pews. Music is Byzantine chant sung without instruments. A coffee hour follows the Sunday liturgy, giving visitors a chance to meet the priest and parishioners. The church belongs to the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.

Non-Orthodox visitors are welcome, though Holy Communion is reserved for prepared Orthodox Christians. There is no strict dress code, but modest, respectful clothing is the custom. Families worship together, and a nursery or cry room is available upstairs. The parish at 920 West 7th Street lists Sunday School, Joy and GOYA youth ministries, a Greek School, a young adult group, a Bible study group, Philoptochos charitable work, a fellowship group for adults 55 and older, a Byzantine choir, and Greek folk dance.
