Welcome to the website of The Twelve Apostles Greek Orthodox Church. The church is one of many Greek Orthodox churches in the United Kingdom. It serves as the spiritual centre for the community of Hertfordshire and beyond. Any visitor to our church will tell you that it is like a little monastery you expect to find at the top of a mountain in Cyprus or Greece.

Our church welcomes worshipers from other Orthodox Christian communities (Greek and non-Greek) and is especially popular with the younger generation who select it for their weddings and baptisms. We are the only Greek Orthodox church in the United Kingdom that broadcasts live video (see links above) and caters for online bookings (see link above) for weddings and baptisms. In addition, for weddings, we have authority to perform the civil ceremony at the same time as the religious one.

Every month the church produces a magazine that contains spiritual information and news from our community.

For previous editions, go to News & Events and select one of the Archive options.

Our church now accepts card payments for booking weddings and baptisms, paying for other services or making donations.

Parking is available within the grounds of the church for all services. The car parking areas are clearly labelled and there is capacity for approximately 200 cars. Hence, if you are organising a baptism or wedding, your guests do not need to worry about where to park and neither do you.

The larger parking area is available on your right hand side immediately after passing the church (if you have turned off Great North Road into Kentish Lane). Please use this area to avoid congestion in the smaller parking area in front of the church.

We are very grateful to AST for their continued support in hosting our website, developing our mobile apps and creating our online booking system. For a full list of services offered by AST, please visit their website by clicking here.
