Welcome to Saint Mary Orthodox Church
St Mary is an Orthodox Christian Church. Organized in August 1995, with its first Divine Liturgy September 15, 1995, it is the only Orthodox Church in Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and serves the entire community, without regard to ethnic background. Our membership includes people of Greek, Russian, Bulgarian, Egyptian, and Iraqi descent, as well as people whose families came from Italy, England, Germany, Slovakia, and Slovenia, and the dates of immigration to what is now the United States range from 1621 to1990.






We are very fortunate in having as our Priest one of the most outstanding Priests of the Antiochian Archdiocese, Fr Theodore Pulcini. Fr Ted studied at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox Seminary and has taught as visiting faculty at St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary. He is currently on the faculty of Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where he teaches in the Department of Religion
