    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    Before the Great Sunday of Pentecost we pray for all the souls of the human beings from all the ages who have died, for Christ to have mercy on them at the descent of the All-Holy Spirit and before the Final Judgement.
  • Jun 04, 8:45 AM – 12:45 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    Fifty days after the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and ten days after His Ascension to Heaven, the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles gathered in Jerusalem. This extraordinary event, the "birthday" of the Church as the Body of Christ in History, empowered them to preach the Gospel to all nations.
  • Jun 11, 8:45 AM – 12:30 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    The Sunday after Pentecost, the Church celebrates the result of the descent of the Holy Spirit: the sanctification of mankind. The Holy Spirit is given to us so that we all might become Saints, thus we are all also called to be, "Saints in the making."
  • Jun 18, 8:45 AM – 1:00 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA

  • Jun 24, 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    He that was greater than all who are born of women, the Prophet who received God's testimony that he surpassed all the Prophets, was born of the aged and barren Elizabeth (Luke 1: 7) and filled all his kinsmen, and those that lived round about, with gladness and wonder.
  • Jun 25, 8:45 AM – 1:00 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    O Prophet and Forerunner of the presence of Christ, we who fervently honor you cannot worthily praise you. For by your revered and glorious birth the barrenness of your mother and the muteness of your father were unbound, and the incarnation of the Son of God is proclaimed to the world.
  • Jun 29, 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    The foremost of the Apostles, Ss. Peter and Paul led the Church in the very first years of its existence on planet earth. St. Paul was the "Apostle to the Gentiles" and Peter was called the "Rock" for his confession of the Divinity of Jesus. Both were martyred in Rome.
  • Jun 30, 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
    St. John the Baptist GOC, 5300 El Camino Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, USA
    After the Feast of the Chief Apostles, Peter and Paul, the Orthodox Church celebrates the "Synaxis" or "Gathering" of all the 12 Holy Apostles of Jesus Christ.
Message from Father John

Welcome to the website of St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church, Las Vegas, Nevada. Our 10 acre campus is crowned by a beautiful Byzantine Church and magnificent Community and Education Center, and located in the Southwest area of the valley. 

Our Lord says, “You are the light of the world.  A city set on a hill cannot be hid.” (Matthew 5:14)  While it may seem to many an anomaly to have a large and dynamic Orthodox Christian community in what the world identifies as “Sin City,” we see ourselves as a light shining in the darkness – not the flashy lights usually associated with Las Vegas, but the Light of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 

As you navigate our website, we pray your heart and mind will be illumined by the truth and glory of our ancient Orthodox Christian Faith and inspired by the many ways we shine His Light in our community. 

We invite you to join us for worship and fellowship, and to explore our ministries.  

Love in Christ, 

Fr John Hondros
