Our patron, St. Barnabas, epitomizes our purpose: to plant Orthodoxy in your heart and encourage you our your spiritual journey of theosis.

St. Barnabas, born Joseph, was an early Christian. He was moved by the Word and was so committed to preaching the Gospel that he sold also his possesisions and gave the money to the apostles; recognizing his commitment, the apostles named him Barnabas, meaning 'son of encouragement.'

Our primary mission is to plant Orthodoxy is your heart and, like St. Barnabas, to encourage you on your spiritual journey. In doing so, we hope and pray to inspire the next generation of believers to keep alive the faith, the teachings and the traditions of the Holy Church - invaluable treasures we inherited from our parents.

We are encouraged and strengthed daily by the prayers and intercession of the Holy Theotokos, our patron St. Barnabas, and all the Saints and Fathers of the Holy Church.
