About Me

The Handmaiden is a quarterly journal that provides a vital, vibrant community for Orthodox Christian women. It's a place where Orthodox life and spirituality are discussed, and people of all ages, jurisdictions, and backgrounds come together to learn, share, and grow. In each issue you'll find articles on topics such as women's ministry; spirituality and Orthodox life; relationships; childrearing and education; culture and tradition; and more.
With the Handmaiden of the Lord, the Holy Theotokos, as its guide, The Handmaiden strives to be a beacon of light, a place where Orthodox Christian women and others who are interested in Orthodox life and spirituality can come together to learn, share, relate, and grow.
Join us as part of the Handmaiden community, as we prayerfully and joyfully struggle to become the women of God we long to be.
The Handmaiden is published in a 64-page journal (6"x9") format.
