Who we are
Welcome to the Orthodox Parish of St Peter & St Paul in Swindon.
We are a parish of the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate), within the Diocese of Sourozh.
With joy and love, we welcome everyone who comes to our church to meet with Christ.
Our Parish was originally founded around 60 years ago by the Polish Orthodox Community. Since 1962 it has been part of the Sourozh Diocese (Moscow Patriarchate).
The Liturgy is held on the fourth Sunday of each month and is in Church Slavonic and English. Our parish priest is Fr. Maxim Nikolsky.
Worship services take place in St Aldhelm's Chapel in the town centre. After the service, everyone is invited to stay for a light tea and to spend time together. It would be great if you can bring something to share for tea.
