COVID-19 Resources
In-Person and Online Worship Services

Questions Everyone Should Ask Themselves Before Coming to In-Person Worship:

Do you have:

  • A fever, cough, shortness of breath, and or trouble breathing?
  • Persistent pain, pressure or tightness in chest?
  • Any recent loss of taste/smell or gastrointestinal upset?
  • Any contact with anyone with COVID-19?

If you answer YES to any of these questions you should stay at home.

Online Streaming

We are continuing to live-stream worship services through Facebook Live for those who cannot attend in person.  Below is the link to the videos area of St Michael's Facebook group.  This area will allow you to see our current live stream as well as videos recorded previously.

If you are not already a member of the group, you will be asked if you are a member of St Michael's.  Answer it, and you will automatically be added to the group.

As always, weekly bulletins can be found in their normal place on the Weekly Bulletins page.

The Mission of The Orthodox Church in America, the local autocephalous Orthodox Christian Church, is to be faithful in fulfilling the commandment of Christ to “Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…”

St. Michael's is part of the Diocese of Eastern Pennsylvania, which is presided over by The Most Reverend Mark (Maymon), Archbishop of Philadelphia and Eastern Pennsylvania. Our mission is bringing the joy of Christ's resurrection to those who have never heard the Good News, and to strengthen and encourage the faithful who reside within Wilmington and the local area.

The Holy Scripture is a collection of books written over multiple centuries by those inspired by God to do so. It is the primary witness to the Orthodox Christian faith, within Holy Tradition and often described as its highest point. It was written by the prophets and apostles in human language, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and collected, edited, and canonized by the Church.

Holiness or sainthood is a gift (charisma) given by God to man, through the Holy Spirit. Man's effort to become a participant in the life of divine holiness is indispensable, but sanctification itself is the work of the Holy Trinity, especially through the sanctifying power of Jesus Christ, who was incarnate, suffered crucifixion, and rose from the dead, in order to lead us to the life of holiness, through the communion with the Holy Spirit.
