Rooted in the worship of Jesus Christ and the historic Christian faith, ASONA is known for faithful preaching, experienced clergy, and one of the most comprehensive parish catechism programs in the United States. Since 2018, the ASONA Catechism has been used by Orthodox clergy and parishes around the world, reflecting the parish's commitment to clear, systematic Orthodox instruction. ASONA's clergy are dedicated to teaching the Orthodox faith with clarity, wisdom, and pastoral care. Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time, coming from a Protestant or Roman Catholic background, or returning to the Church after many years, you will find thoughtful guidance, biblical teaching, and a welcoming path into the life of the Orthodox Church. Just as important, ASONA is a vibrant parish family where singles, young adults, families with children, and retirees worship and grow together. Through reverent services, authentic Christian fellowship, and intentional lifelong discipleship, ASONA strives to help every person know Christ more deeply and faithfully live the Orthodox Christian life.
