Proskemidi & Preparation Prayers
Sunday 10:30am
Divine Liturgy
We are part of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Thyateira and Great Britain and therefore in communion with the Oecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Although part of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese our members include people from many nationalities including Greek, Cypriot, Russian, Romanian, Georgian, Bulgarian
, Indian, Malaysian as well as British. To cater for our multi-national membership our services are therefore mainly held in English and we have received a number of new people into the Orthodox Church over the years. We held Services in various places around the Preston and Wigan area from November 1989. From January 2000 - July 2007 we rented the Galloway Hall in Preston on Sunday mornings to serve the Holy Liturgy. This provided a more permanent base and support grew from people of different nationalities. After what seemed like an endless search for a property to use as our own church we finally found and successfully purchased the former Leyland Lane Methodist Church on Leyland Lane in Leyland, which we moved into on July 23rd 2007. After the Liturgy, tea and coffee is provided so if you are new please do join us for a drink and make yourself known to us. You will always find a warm welcome at Holy Apostles.
