Panagia Vlahernon

Panagia Vlahernon Greek Orthodox Monastery is a monastic community rooted in the Athonite tradition. It is a place of prayer and repentance for the brotherhood and a refuge for pious pilgrims and visitors. The grounds of the monastery itself are sanctified by these prayers and, therefore, are deserving of respect. The brotherhood, recognizing the sanctity of the environment in which we live, have composed the following rules that all guests are expected to follow in order to retain the holiness and serenity of our home. All guests are asked to call the monastery before visiting, especially if they intend to confess or seek spiritual advice from the abbot. If no one is available to answer the phone, please leave a voicemail and one of the fathers will return the call as soon as the opportunity presents itself. Please state the purpose of your call when leaving a message. Please note that the monastery is closed to visitors on Mondays, including during regularly scheduled services.
