Who we are

The Serbian Orthodox presence in Bisbee goes back to the late 1880s. While some of these early immigrants went into business, most went to work in the mines. Their importance for the local economy can be seen in Bisbee’s “copper man” statue, for which a Serbian miner served as model. Many of these early immigrants became American citizens, but they retained a love for the Orthodox Christian faith of their homeland. Newspaper articles document visits by early priests for baptisms and special occasions – most notably Fr. Sebastian Dabovich, American-born son of Serbian immigrants who was canonized in 2015 as St. Sebastian of Jackson and San Francisco.

The Serbian Orthodox Church, like many other Orthodox churches, follows the old Julian Calendar, according to which Christmas falls thirteen days after December 25 on the calendar now used in most of the world.

Our Christmas Eve Badnje Vece celebration in our hall begins with a short prayer service and a symbolic burning of the Yule log. The evening continues with music and family fun for all ages.

The Divine Liturgy on Christmas Day (January 7) at St. Stephen Nemanja will be followed by a festive meal in the church hall. If you will be attending, please let Fr. John know by email so that we can plan the food accordingly.
