The St. Demetrios Church of Maine is an Orthodox Christian community. Since our establishment in 1909, we have been located in the Biddeford-Saco area of Maine. People of all ages who come from a variety of cultural backgrounds and spiritual journeys embody our thriving Church..
We believe that God is working in amazing ways here, and we are blessed to be a part of it.
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”
Mark 16:15
The Church was originated by Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, not with a human teacher, group, code of conduct or religious philosophy. Orthodoxy upholds a direct and unbroken continuity of love, faith, and order with the Church of Christ born in the Pentecost experience, also known as the “outpouring” of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles (Acts 2).
