Welcome!
Saint Basil the Great Orthodox Church is a community of the Orthodox Church in America— Diocese of the South. We are a local congregation of the Eastern Orthodox Communion of Churches (among which are numbered the Russian Orthodox, Greek Orthodox, Romanian Orthodox and other nationally associated bodies). Established in 2007 by a small group of Orthodox Christians in Wilmington who were committed to expanding the Orthodox witness to the Christian faith in Southeastern North Carolina through an English language Orthodox Church, St. Basil’s wishes to offer the riches of traditional Christianity to all who desire a deeply reverent worship experience informed by traditional Christian doctrines and values.
Our priest, Father Peter Robichau, can be contacted by calling 910-805-0981, or your may email him at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Visitors are always welcome. Come and see!
SAINT BASILS IS MOVING!
Our community finally signed a lease on a space of our own, and after renovations are complete in December we will have room to grow. The 2600 square foot facility off of Wrightsville Avenue in Wilmington will provide adequeate worship space as well as plenty of fellowship, meeting and office space. Volunteer workers have been laboring to create a beautiful facility that we can call our own until such a time that a full-scale building project can be undertaken on property of our own (when God wills).
Check back in the coming weeks for updated information on the date of our first service in the new building. Click here to view some photos of the progress to date.
