The York Christian Orthodox Community

THE COMMUNITY

The Community of St. Constantine the Great meets at the Chapel of York St. John University. Occasionally, when the Chapel is in use for another purpose we meet elsewhere on the campus. A notice is then posted on the door of the Chapel.

To find us, see the map of the university campus here.

The Community produces a monthly calendar which lists the major saints commemorated on each day, including those for the British Isles, details of the appointed readings for the day and a note on the fasting rules.
 
You can view the Calendar here:   May.

The Chaplaincy is supported by many Orthodox people from near and far. All are welcome. It is good to have firm foundations beneath an otherwise passing student population. The liturgical language in use is English. 

All enquirers too are welcome to join us at the Divine Liturgy, and make themselves known to us. A university campus is just the place to enquire about things. We look forward to meeting you!
