About Monastery of Saint Dionysios the Areopagite

The Monastery of Saint Dionysios the Areopagite is a monastic institution of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia located in Saint James, New York, serving under the omophorion of His Eminence, Metropolitan Nicholas. The monastery's principal purpose centers on the salvation and edification of its monastics through daily worship services, welcoming married clergy, laypeople, and visitors to participate as one family in Christ. The community comprises both cradle and convert Orthodox Christians from diverse ethnic, linguistic, and religious backgrounds who seek to transform their lives through Orthodox faith while reaching out to surrounding communities. Named after their patron saint Dionysios the Areopagite, who was converted by St. Paul and later became bishop of Athens, the monastery draws spiritual guidance from the rich theological legacy of its namesake. The monastery currently serves while undertaking a building project to establish a permanent church home in their new location.
