About St Gerasimos Greek Orthodox Church
The parish of St Gerasimos covers a wide stretch of the inner west, reaching out to Croydon, Burwood and Strathfield. Sunday Matins and Divine Liturgy start at 7:30am and are held in Greek. The church is on Henry Street among Leichhardt's terrace houses.
Off-street parking near St Gerasimos is limited, and most mourners park in nearby streets. That can be hard for older relatives with walking frames or wheelchairs. The private stream is an option for them, and for family in Greece. We park, carry in our gear and set up before anyone arrives.
