Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church
Potomac, Maryland
American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese
Welcome!

We are a parish comprised of over 80 families. Most of us grew up Orthodox, and most of us have Slavic roots; but our parish also includes a number of converts and other ethnicities that enhance our parish family. We welcome all. In addition to Divine Liturgy on Sunday and services during the week, there is something for everyone at Holy Resurrection:

  • A Choir that spiritually and joyfully sings the responses to the liturgy
  • Active Senior and Junior chapters of the ACRY
  • Sunday School for all children and opportunities for Altar boys
  • Successful fund raisers selling delicious traditional baked goods such as nut rolls and braided breads.
  • A Social Concerns Committee serving the area with bagged lunches, support for Women’s Shelters, Thanksgiving baskets.
  • Social Activities – St. Nicholas Dinner, Church Picnic, Weekly Coffee Socials

Holy Resurrection looks forward to you worshipping with us!
