Sharing the Gospel of Christ 

Since its inception, the Ecumenical Patriarch's Albanian Orthodox Diocese of the Americas has grown significantly.  Striving to be "a servant of Christ Jesus," our Diocese is rooted in the multifaceted spiritual and cultural work of the Ecumenical Patriarchate worldwide.  Having been "set apart for the gospel of God" (Rm 1:1), our Diocese's foremost mission is expressed in the apostolic tradition and worship of the Holy Orthodox Church.
