Greetings and blessings from the St. Barnabas Malankara Orthodox Church, a parish within the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church’s Northeast American Diocese. We worship The Lord in English, and I joyfully welcome you to our website!

St. Barnabas is a spiritual home for all who seek a meaningful and transformative relationship with God. We are committed to creating a welcoming environment for everyone in need of a supportive and loving parish community. 

We adhere to the core tenets of the Orthodox Churches, following the West Syrian Liturgical Rite, which enriches our worship and nurtures our faith. This beautiful tradition is designed to help all of us live a truly Christian life, even in the fast-paced environment of the DMV. 

I encourage you to explore our site and learn more about our community. I hope you’ll take a leap of faith and join us for worship.
