The Community Meal

Community Outreach Meals at Holy Cross Stroudsburg, beginning in September, will be serving dinners from 5:00pm-6:00pm on the 3rd Friday of each month.

Online Catechism

ONLINE GROUP CATECHISM WITH FATHER KONSTANTINOS 8 weeks of concentrated time online (once a week) in a group setting of catechism for current catechumens/inquirers, for those who have already recently entered the Church, and for those who want to learn more about our Faith. These classes will be done only online. Orthodoxy Christianity is a way of life. As part of formation and catechism, coming to church services is vitally necessary, as the Orthodox Faith is not just about facts, so Father strongly and most importantly recommends and encourages the attendance of church services, especially on Sundays and major feast days. Please contact Father Konstantinos or the church office if you would like to participate in the online catechism classes
