We welcome all visitors to our Orthodox chapel, located in Berea, KY! St. Nina Orthodox Mission — founded in 2021 — is itself a daughter of a now-large parish, St. Athanasius Orthodox Church in Nicholasville, that began as a small mission back in 2002. Both our mother parish and our daughter mission are blessed to have many visitors. We invite you to “come and see.”
Our full calendar for all events in our mission over the next several months is here. All evening services now begin at 630pm. Here is our calendar for Holy Week, Paschaltide, and April, service by service:
