Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America
The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America is the Eparchy of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in the United States, serving as the spiritual home for hundreds of parishes and millions of faithful. It was established to nurture the Greek Orthodox faith and Hellenic heritage among the Orthodox faithful in America while spreading the Gospel of Christ through worship, education, and service. The Archdiocese upholds the teachings of the Holy Fathers, the sacred traditions of the Church, and the life-giving presence of Christ in the Divine Liturgy and Sacraments.
Under the pastoral guidance of His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America, the Archdiocese works to build strong parishes, support clergy and families, and engage in humanitarian efforts that bear witness to Christ’s love. Through national ministries, the Archdiocese promotes youth and young adult outreach, religious education, inter-Orthodox unity, and the defense of human dignity and freedom. It stands as a vital spiritual center for Orthodox Christians across the nation.
