Welcome to St. John's Eastern Orthodox Church! We are a small, humble parish nestled in beautiful Amarillo, Texas. We gladly welcome all newcomers and invite you to experience the timeless traditions and services of the ancient Orthodox Christian Faith. Please check our service schedule for current times and dates of liturgical services. We typically have a priest on a bi-weekly basis. When a priest is not here, we invite you to attend our Typika service followed by a Bible Study in the community hall. 

A Prayer for the Priesthood:

O Lord Jesus Christ, enkindle the hearts of all Thy priests with the fire of zealous love for Thee, that they may ever seek Thy glory, remembering especially Fr. Peter and Fr. Dan. Give them strength that they may labor unceasingly in Thine earthly vineyard for the salvation of our souls and the glory of Thine All-Honorable and Majestic Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Scarlett and Audra are the two team leads for Coffee Hour refreshments - if you would like to volunteer, please see one of them! This can be as easy as picking up something from the grocery store or helping to clean up afterwards. The goal of this team system is to make sure we can continue providing coffee hour consistently without the same few people carrying the responsibility every week. Many parishes use this approach successfully so that everyone can contribute in ways that fit their time, energy, and budget. Even small roles make a big difference. If you’ve been on the fence or unsure how you could help, this is a great way to jump in. Your help is very appreciated! Read more »
