Welcome
to St. Elizabeth Orthodox Mission.
Our parish was founded in
2003 as a mission to the south suburbs of the Twin Cities.
We are a diverse community united in faith and service
to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
You are invited to join us as we gather for worship on Sundays at 1580 Century Point Ave. in Eagan, Minnesota. |
First Visit to an Orthodox Church? Some differences in Orthodox worship are apparent, if not perplexing, from the first moment you walk into a church.

The Orthodox
Church
One of
the three branches of world Christianity,
the Orthodox Church is a fellowship of administratively
independent local churches, united in faith,
sacraments, and canonical discipline.
Standing
in direct continuity with the earliest Christian
communities founded by the apostles of Jesus,
the faith of the Orthodox Church is expressed
in her ancient worship, which immerses participants
in the reality of the biblical story.
St. Elizabeth
Mission is part of the Midwest Diocese of
the Orthodox Church in America.
Based
in Chicago, the Diocese of the Midwest is
under the protection of His Eminence, the
Most Reverend †JOB, Archbishop of Chicago
and the Midwest, and includes approximately
80 parishes, monasteries, missions and other
institutions. |
