Orthodox churches form a meaningful part of American Christian life. Eastern Orthodox churches share an unbroken liturgical tradition dating to the early church, with patriarchates such as Greek, Russian, Antiochian, and Serbian represented in the U.S. The tradition traces its modern form to the 1st century. Today the tradition counts approximately 1 million in the U.S.

It joins a long tradition of Christian witness across the South, a region whose religious landscape ranges from historic cathedrals to country chapels and storefront congregations. Metairie sits within Louisiana, whose state capital is Baton Rouge. Both regular attenders and first-time visitors are welcome.
