Christ is Risen! — Христос Воскресе!

Welcome

A parish family in the heart of Auckland

We are a parish of the Diocese of Australia and New Zealand of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia. For seven decades our community has kept the Orthodox faith and its Russian heritage alive at the bottom of the world — praying, baptising, marrying, teaching children and welcoming newcomers in the ancient rhythm of the Church year.

After many years of searching, our growing community has acquired a new home for the church and parish centre on Dominion Road. Come and see — and, as our rector says, visit it often.

Parish life

More than Sunday morning

Trapeza after Liturgy, a sisterhood and brotherhood, children’s classes, summer camps, concerts and feasts — the parish is a family that gathers far more often than once a week.
