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.”
