Welcome to Our Holy Church
Our Parish is in St Albans, Melbourne, Australia, and is dedicated to three Saints; celebrating the Feast Days of
Saint Paraskevi on July 26th,
Saint Barbara on December 4th,
and Saint John the Merciful on November 12th.
We have also recently been blessed with a beautiful Icon of Our Mother of Consolation, whom we commemorate on the Friday after January 21st. Our Most Holy Lady came and made her home with us from the Holy Mountain, Mount Athos.
We thank God that at our Parish we always have something exciting and Spiritually enriching going on. Together with our Priest Fr Demos Nicolaou, we partake in regular Liturgical Services, Sacraments, Prayers, Spiritual Discussions, Functions, Pilgrimages, Sunday School, Elderly Citizens Gatherings, Youth Nights and much more!
Come join us as we grow together in the love of Christ.
Saint Paraskevi Church is under the Spiritual and Ecclesiastical leadership of His Eminence Archbishop Makarios of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia, within the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.
God bless you and be with you always!

"Come, O believers, let us be Divinely uplifted, and we shall see God's condescension to us from on high manifest in Bethlehem. Having purified our minds, let us bring the gift of a virtuous life instead of frankincense, as we faithfully deck the halls of Christmas, with the treasures we have in our Souls. And let us cry aloud and sing, 'Glory in the highest to God in Trinity! Through You Divine good pleasure was revealed among men, to release Adam from the ancestral curse, in Your love for humanity.'"
