Holy Archangels Greek Orthodox Monastery

Holy Archangels Greek Orthodox Monastery


Holy Archangels Monastery is located on a beautiful 155-acre in the hill country of central Texas, between Austin and San Antonio. It was founded in 1996 by Archimandrite Ephrem of Philotheou Monastery on Mt. Athos, following the pattern established for Saint Anthony Monastery in Florence, Arizona. A century-old Texas ranch house built of field stone serves as one monastic residence, while other monks are housed in a contemporary structure that includes a large Trapeza for the monastics and guests. A vast complex currently under renovation and construction includes a Katholikon and many cells. There are four monastics and four novices in residence.
