Sts. Peter and Paul parish, Salt Lake City building project

Source: Sts. Peter and Paul Orthodox Christian Church

The Sts. Peter and Paul Orthodox parish (Antiochian Archdiocese), is a shining light in the city of Salt Lake City, UT, with an ever-growing parish community, an active liturgical schedule, and a number of active ministries. The parish is currently facing the "beautiful problem" of outgrowing its present building and is currently in the midst of a fundraising campaign towards building a new complex that will continue to enable their growth and spread of the true Orthodox Christian faith.

They have produced a wonderful video highlighting their strengths and needs. To donate visit their parish website.

I live in Salt Lake City. I went to Sts. Peter and Paul for 6 weeks as I was a Lutheran looking to convert to Orthodox Christianity. Yes, the church is crowded and the children run around--which makes it hard to pay attention to the service. It is not nearly as nice and organized as the video depicts. If you are interested in following Antiochian Orthodoxy exactly how Fr. Justin views it, then this is your church. If you want your individual needs met and your individual circumstances taken into account, then this is not your church. Interesting, that the video shows all of the homeless removed from the front lawn of the church where they are usually encamped. Yes, they do need a larger church. This is a Russian website so you should know that there is a Russian Orthodox church, St. George Russian Orthodox, in a nearby city, West Jordan. They greatly need your support, too, including financially. It is there that I was ultimately baptised into the Orthodox Church. Fr. Michael will address your individual needs and give you his time when you request it. The services are beautiful and the parents mind their children. It is a wonderful Orthodox community.
