The Nativity of the Holy Virgin Orthodox Church was founded in Menlo Park in 1952 by Russian émigrés from China and Europe. Today, most of our parishioners are Russian — either born in the homeland or in emigration. Our community also includes Americans who have embraced Orthodoxy, as well as Orthodox Christians of other nationalities.

We warmly welcome everyone to our church — to walk together on the path to salvation.

Molebens and memorial services are conducted by prior arrangement with the rector. All services are held in the church.

Confession — please contact Fr. Michael in advance to schedule a time. Confessions are also heard after the Saturday evening Vigil.

Fr. Michael’s contact information can be found in the “Contact” section of this website.

Thank you for your understanding and for following these guidelines.
