Welcome to the Orthodox parish of St. Vladimir, Prince of Kiev

On behalf of the clergy and parishioners of the parish, welcome.

In good Canadian fashion, I will start with apologizing for our web site. It is a work in progress and not always as up to date as we would like. We are undergoing changes and it will take time for us to modernize both our look and content.

We are an active community, quite welcoming and loving to all. Our parishioners come from all walks of life and nationalities. Everyone seeking comfort and salvation is able to find a home at St. Vladimir’s.

We have a full schedule of divine services, a parish school for children, adult education, fellowship and more.

If you are new to Orthodoxy, or just want to enquire about the faith, the best way to do this is, to come to church for a service and see what Orthodoxy is all about. Take a moment to introduce yourself to someone from the parish and to speak to a priest. If you are shy, you can always reach out via email, text or phone. We would be glad to hear from you.

If you are already Orthodox and new to Halifax, or looking to reconnect with your faith, we are excited that you are here.

Both our priests speak English, Russian and Greek. Fr. Alexander also speaks Arabic and Fr. Stelian speaks some French.

The Orthodox church was founded by our Lord, God and Saviour Jesus Christ, and He is the head of the Church. Our parish is part of the Canadian Orthodox Church, the Archdiocese of Canada of the Orthodox Church in America.

The Orthodox Church: A first century Church for a 21 st century people.

In Christ,
Fr. Stelian Liabotis
Rector

Sunday before Theophany

Immediately after Liturgy on Sunday (Janurary 18th), we will serve the Great Blessing of Water at Church.
Please remember to bring an empty bottle so that you can take holy water back home with you.
Afterwards, we will proceed to the usual location to bless the Ocean and have coffee hour. If you do not know where that is, please ask someone at church on Sunday. Please bring Lenten food, as the eve of Theophany is a fasting day (aka sandwiches and sweets and not pots or salads for ease).
Weather permitting of course.
