The spires and cupolas of this beautiful Orthodox church are visible from many places in Forest Hills. The interior of the church is richly decorated with murals, stained glass and an icon screen.
Each Tuesday morning at 10am is reserved for "Tuesday Volunteers." People do various jobs around the church. When the work is done, they serve lunch.
This church was originally established in neighboring Quincy in 1959. By 2004, population shifts and increased demand for service capacity led to the opening of the current church just off northern Washington Street in Braintree. The church, a beautiful red stone structure, contains a community center, administrative offices, classrooms and a very spacious parking lot. There are youth groups here, as well as a choir.
