St. Barnabas Orthodox Church of the Comox Valley

St. Barnabas Orthodox Church of the Comox Valley St. Barnabas Orthodox Church was started as a mission in the Comox Valley at the beginning of September 1998. Barnabas Orthodox Church has a door opened for you.

Are you inspired by the Bible and the teachings of the Church, and do you feel a strong connection with traditions? Come visit us! Barnabas Orthodox Church is in the Archdiocese of Canada under the jurisdiction of the Orthodox Church in America (O.C.A.). All services are in English and the Church uses the “new” calendar. For many Western Christians, the Eastern Orthodox Church is unknown to them o

r is very much a mystery to them. We hope to alleviate that mystery and bring to light the wonder and teaching of the oldest Church in the world. If you have questions about the Orthodox Church, theology, history, etc., you can go to the Question & Answer page on the O.C.A. Website (https://stbarnabascomoxvalley.ca) or you can contact Fr. Alexis Nikkel by phone or e-mail. And, of course, you are always welcome to come and visit us. God bless you!

Orthodox calendar 📅 August 29

▫ The Beheading of the Glorious Prophet, Forerunner, and Baptist John (Strict Fast!)

Saint John the Baptist is traditionally considered the greatest saint in the Orthodox tradition, excluding the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Troparion — Tone 2
The memory of the righteous is celebrated with hymns of praise, / but the Lord’s testimony is sufficient for you, O Forerunner. / You were shown in truth to be the most honorable of the prophets, / for you were deemed worthy to baptize in the streams of the Jordan Him whom they foretold. / Therefore, having suffered for the truth with joy, / you proclaimed to those in hell God who appeared in the flesh, / who takes away the sin of the world, / and grants us great mercy.
