Holy Protection of the Holy Theotokos Skete
Holy Resurrection Church

The monastics live an idiorrhythmic lifestyle. This means that they live independently, in groups of from one to six people who are self-supporting. The monastics and the companions gather in the community Chapel (Kyriacon) of the Holy Resurrection to celebrate daily prayers, Great Vespers and the Divine Liturgy.

Our primary purpose is to serve Christ our Lord through our fellow human beings by recognizing, affirming, and supporting the Truth in the mind of every person and the Love in the heart of every person. Our ministry is to those who hunger and thirst for Truth in this time of social fragmentation, ecclesiastical disunity, and spiritual delusion.

Our community objectives include maintaining a place of prayer and spiritual asylum where the full liturgical life of the Orthodox way is observed; to present the ancient mystical and ascetic Orthodox way as a viable spiritual path for contemporary women and men; and to maintain a spiritual community characterized by inclusiveness and committed to human service and spiritual growth while functioning in the secular world. Our commitment to making our functioning in the world a holy work is what makes us different from most other spiritual communities. We are under the spiritual guidance of Archimandrite Gabriel, Igumenos.

If you are visiting Albuquerque, please come and worship with us. All are welcome.   If you desire to commune, please come to Vespers and speak with Archimandrite Gabriel.
