St. Botolph's is a parish of the Orthodox Church in North London. We are part of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of the British Isles and Ireland. Divine Liturgy is celebrated every Sunday at 11am, preceded by abbreviated Orthros at 10:30am.
All our services are in English.
Everyone is welcome at our services and may receive the blessed bread (antidoron) as well as a blessing at the end of the service, but only Orthodox Christians may receive Holy Communion.
Any additional services or changes in our schedule will be announced in the parish newsletter.
We moved recently and because things are still up in the air and we aren't sure whether our current location is a permanent or a temporary home, we aren't openly advertising our location at the moment, but we still welcome visitors! If you woud like to attend services, please write to Fr. Alexander to ask for details. Thank you for your patience and support!
We are one of the very few Orthodox parishes in London regularly serving in English and the only one where the Divine
Liturgy is offered in English every Sunday.
Our parishioners come from diverse backgrounds and cultures. We are young in spirit, lively and multicultural, eager to welcome both Orthodox — cradle or convert — and enquirers. So please, come along! After the service, we all share a communal meal together, after which Fr. Alexander instructs those preparing to join the Orthodox Church and anyone interested in learning more about the faith.
Things are still a bit up in the air, so we aren't openly advertising our new location just yet. If you woud like to attend services, please write to Fr. Alexander to ask for details. When we are more settled you will be able to find more information here.
The future of St. Botolph's depends entirely on its parishioners and sponsors. Please consider supporting us with gifts of prayer, time, talent, and money. Any donation you can make, however small, will be very helpful and appreciated. Most importantly, please come and visit us as often as you can!
