Best Greek Orthodox Church Independence Near Me

Steve Kort: Great place

Liz Whelan: Greek festival outstanding.

Telly Tomlinson: I have been going to this festival for 14 years straight! The entertainment and the music is always wonderful! For the 14 years when I purchase jewelry, (I buy something every single year, without fail). I've tried to ignore how insulting and humiliating I feel when I look at a piece of jewelry to purchase or contemplate on purchasing when the sales person takes the piece and holds it! Consequently, the other patrons gather their trinkets as they continue to browse! Why? I am not a thief!!!! perhaps it is the melanin in my skin? I think this may have been my last time attending this function. Not worth my blood pressure going up when this happens!

GreggsBecky Moore (GreggsBecky): A great time had by everyone in our family!

ConnieAnn Blee: Excellent !From Riverside, New YorkVisited. June 2017

Chaparro Troy (MMT Chaparrito y picante): Just go there

leonard radulescu: Wonderful

Bernard Schuster: I was there for the Greek Food Festival they have every year and which I really enjoy. It offers authentic Greek food and continuous Greek music and authentic Greek folk dance performances... it's a great time every year. It is also a fund raiser for the church. Admission is free and the food is very good but a bit expensive. Opah!

Diana Bracken: Love the Greek festival. We are going every year. Love it.

Edmund Szubka: Beautiful and family orientated

Robert Gensler: Don’t let the name fool you. This is an orthodox Christian church open to everyone. The congregation is made up of Greeks and non Greeks alike.

Derrick Rieke: Check out the Greek food festival they have every year!

Johnny Jr: I went for the Greek Festival. As always they had some of the best festival cuisine. In addition, they imported a great professional dance troupe from Chicago.

Lucy Ladley: The Tour of the church and anointed icons was meaningful. The Greek Dancers and Musicians were so talented. The Food was totally delicious!

Barbara Friend: was voting. there was no waiting at all workers informative and friendly

Gerald Loechel: Attended a few liturgies in the old space and stupidly let worldly problems in life get in the way of continuing. Not even family should be put ahead of God as Matthew 10:37 tells us. Well suffice to say I disobeyed and that was not the right choice. God made that very clear. I will be there this week, God willing. If you want to get an idea of the spirit of this place check out The Royal Path on YouTube or Fr Turbo on one of many podcast appearances. That was God's way of providential tapping at my door once, twice, then too many times to not be directed personally to me as he seemingly just happened to appear as a guest on every podcast I was clinging to learning what little I could that without I fear I may have slipped away...

Jamie King: I spent a few days here with the priest, Father Turbo and had an amazing time. Great community of people that have built something very authentic out of their love for God. Lots of young families, beautiful singing in Liturgy.

Monica Van Zile: St. Mary's has been my home parish since 2017; I never left after my first visit. St. Mary's has quite literally changed my family's life. While we had previously attended another church that felt like family, the bond at St. Mary's was near instant.Repentance. Salvation. At the heart of the parish, Christ is primary. The world is left outside the doors. There is a peace that I had never experienced before.Finally, having accountability and a spiritual father who is wise beyond his years has impacted my daily life profoundly.

Keri McCloud: After much searching in the Kansas City area for two years to find an Orthodox Parish to call our spiritual home, my family and I found St Mary's of Egypt. Glory to God!!!

Well Building Connection, LLC A WBC Enterprise: A sacred place to receive spiritual fulfillment; knowledge, and refuge for the soul.

Adam Lockridge: Life changing

Thomas Eblen: Where the "Prayer of the Heart" took me while journeying, with others, as a pilgrim on my "road of happy destiny". I pray that "God bless us and keep us" as we return to Him to be one with Him!

William O: A wonderful Orthodox Church centrally located in Kansas City. An excellent place to grow spiritually. Very family friendly for service as well as afterwards during coffee hour. Divine Liturgy with Father Turbo is always a wonderful and thought provoking experience. All are welcome to attend.

Brian Whirledge: A wonderful, welcoming, loving, and active community.

Matthew Moore: Love my Eastern Orthodox Church! St Mary of Egypt has been influential in my quest to become fully human. Moving to our new location fulfills a dream I have had for some time now. I am very excited to see what our Lord has in store for us. By the Prayer of Saint Moses and all of the Saints may we flourish. Come join us!

Nick Finzer: A humble but wonderful Orthodox parish in the inner city, with a rather large congregation. Fr. Turbo is an incredible pastor and the people are pretty welcoming with a strong desire to follow Christ.

Christopher Rembert: Beautiful exterior! A nice quiet location that was wonderful at night. My fiance and I were amazed at all the rainbow colors on the building of a religion that does not support equality in marriage. Either way... If they were affirming, it would be a perfect location for us to marry. Drive by anytime it is a SIGHT TO SEE!

Christopher Anderson: Came here for a Pokémon stop that was lured!

Josh Mulkey: Amazingly inspirational!

Maryk Meyer: I was just driving by but that picture looks beautiful.

Dancmb O: I attended for a year. Spent at least 90+ hours in services , classes, volunteering, and men’s group throughout the year. Wonderful people, but little diversity, poor mid week attendance. Beautiful building with beautiful ceremony. As an x- Protestant, I’d quickly caution new converts to seriously consider other orthodox churches. The priests rituals and ceremonies are top priority. Tradition first , people second. This church seemed like it was for the ‘best of the best’. I saw just 2 people baptized in one year. Every city needs at least 1 hardcore , ‘no slack’ parish. Make no mistake, this is that church. I’m very happy for the experience, but was quickly fatigued with it. It’s definitely worth a visit though!

Issa Heating Cooling Plumbing: Love this place .

Anthony Wentzel: Lovely church with very nice people

Rachel O'Brien: Awesome Church. Awesome Priest. Awesome People. Awesome Ethicnic Food Festival the Beginning of Every October Each Year.

Ditty kong: Great, powerful and intense. It was amazing. My only regret is not coming sooner.
