Holy Resurrection Orthodox Mission is a mission-parish of the autocephalous (self-ruled) Orthodox Church in America (OCA). Our mission was originally established in Aiken, South Carolina as a missionary outreach of Holy Apostles Orthodox Church in Columbia, SC, but we relocated to Augusta, Georgia in August 2010 to allow for growth. We also work cooperatively with the Saints Mary and Martha Monastery in Wagener, SC.
Our Priest-In-Charge is Father Robert Royer. Fr. Robert came to the Central Savannah River Area by way of Detroit, and along with his wife (Matushka Krystal) and five children (Gabby, Christopher, Andrew, Samuel, and William) have come to call the CSRA home.
Our parish is made up of people from all walks of life, and even different countries and cultures. From young adults with children to great-grandparents, from Puerto Rico to Belarus, our community is truly a melting pot. We would love to see you, no matter where you are from or what your background may be. And don't worry if you're new to Orthodoxy; a significant percentage of our parish is made up of people who came to the Orthodox Church from other Christian confessions. You're sure to find someone with similar experiences to yours, and we welcome all visitors with open arms. Be sure to stay for Coffee Hour so you can get to know us!
