Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption

About this church

The Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption in Windham is an active, year-round Catskills parish centered on the Church of the Assumption of the Theotokos. Divine Liturgy, Orthros, Vespers, feast-day services, sacraments, and community engagement shape its Orthodox life. The parish’s worship guide encourages non-Orthodox visitors to experience the sung, communal, and often lengthy services as the clearest introduction to Orthodox faith and tradition.

Ordinary Sunday Orthros begins at 9:00 a.m., followed by the Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom at 10:00. The detailed 2026 calendar sometimes adjusts those hours for feast observances—for example, selected August services begin with Orthros at 8:30 and Liturgy at 10:15—and also lists evening Vespers, Paraklesis, and Great Lamentations. Visitors should therefore compare their date with the annual schedule rather than assume every Sunday uses the baseline. Worship is sung or chanted, standing is the preferred posture for prayer, and congregational responses and gestures are part of participation. The FAQ still includes old 2024–2025 festival and Pascha dates, so its recurring Sunday schedule is useful but dated seasonal details should be ignored in favor of the 2026 page.
