Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation

About this church

Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation is a Vestal parish of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Detroit. Its life centers on sung and chanted worship, sacramental participation, prayer, Orthodox teaching, parish organizations, and education for children and adults. The church’s pastoral welcome invites visitors to experience the beauty of the Divine services while explaining that the altar area and Holy Communion carry specific Orthodox practices.

Sunday Orthros, or Matins, begins at 9:15 a.m., followed by Divine Liturgy at 10:00. Non-Orthodox guests are welcome to attend but should not receive the Eucharist, which the parish reserves for baptized or chrismated Orthodox Christians. The Sunday bulletin is the most useful source for feast-day additions and service changes, since Orthodox calendars frequently include worship beyond the recurring Sunday pattern. Visitors can expect active congregational prayer, chanting, responses, and signs of reverence rather than a performance watched from a distance. Families interested in Sunday School or Greek School should contact the parish for the current term schedule because leadership is listed but weekly class times are not published on the selected pages. The official address uses “O’Hara Drive,” correcting the directory’s unpunctuated street spelling.
