Monachos: Orthodoxy through Patristic, Monastic and Liturgical study,

Orthodoxy is growing throughout America, and Colorado is no exception. The Rocky Mountain Deanery of the Orthodox Church in America would like to establish a new mission in our state, and while many of the candidates are in Northern Colorado, there are several areas in Southern Colorado that Father Zechariah is willing to serve. This in only a partial listing:

Durango. Our Deanery clergy presently serve a Mission Station for the Four Corners region (15-20 souls and growing) in Durango, a fairly cosmopolitan town with a growing population and economy, nestled in one of the most beautiful parts of our state. With the nearest established community in Delta, Durango will have to have an Orthodox mission eventually. It's only a matter of interest and effort.

Trinidad/Raton. There was historically a large Montenegrin colony in Raton, NM, that clergy from Pueblo served as an extension of the parish. With growth in the Trinidad-Raton area, potential for an Orthodox community with regular services exists here. 

La Junta/Las Animas/Lamar. Heading east from Pueblo, you won't find an established Orthodox community until Garden City, KS. The Lower Arkansas River Valley certainly has potential for a mission. 

Alamosa/Monte Vista. With Adams State College, a growing population and a great deal of scenic beauty, the San Luis Valley deserves to be sanctified by Orthodox prayers. Father Zechariah is presently in contact with one Orthodox family in the area.

If you live in Southern Colorado, but think you're too far from an Orthodox church, think again. Whether you're already Orthodox, or are simply interested in learning more about the Apostolic Faith, Father Zechariah would love to hear from you (see About Our Church section for contact info.). This list of potential sites is not exhaustive. We will not neglect any opportunity to spread the Orthodox Christian Faith.
