Autocephalous Byzantine Orthodox Mission - WRM
El Paso, Texas
The Autocephalous Byzantine Orthodox Mission in El Paso, Texas is a small Anglo-Orthodox Franciscan friary comprising three brothers. They practice Orthodox worship through the Western Rite Liturgy and pray the canonical hours five times daily. The community embraces Franciscan poverty, with members working secular jobs to support themselves rather than relying on those they serve. Their ministry focuses on three key areas: serving the poor and forsaken of El Paso, walking alongside and honoring indigenous peoples of the Southwest, and maintaining ancient Orthodox Christian traditions. The friary is named for St. Kateri Tekakwitha, the first indigenous North American saint. They offer weekly online Bible study rooted in patristic tradition and accept prayer requests carried to the altar at each Liturgy.
