What we do must be guided by: Respect for human dignity – exhibited by a reverence for and commitment to promoting and protecting the dignity of all persons; Compassion – characterized by an empathetic consciousness toward others expressed in caring service ; Solidarity with the Poor – ensuring that the needs of the poor and vulnerable are met through advocacy and action; Justice and Peace – forging right relationships, recreating a sustainable environment, promoting the common good—all in the pursuit of peace.
St. Mary the Protectress Syriac Orthodox Community is located in Plymouth, Indiana. We are a monastic community and intentional Orthodox Christian community. We believe that you can pray to end hunger, but it is not a true prayer unless you also feed those who are hungry. We seek to live the example of Christ and serve all our neighbors. We are a multi-cultural and multi-ethnic worshiping community. Services are in English.
