Holy Resurrection Mission is the only Tennessee mission of the Byzantine Catholic Church, under the spiritual guidance of Metropolitan BASIL Schott of the Archeparchy of Pittsburgh. We currently celebrate Divine Liturgy every Sunday afternoon at 4:00 PM. Please check the schedule page for holy day information and any alterations to the standard schedule.

The Byzantine Catholic Church of America is one of 22 catholic churches in union with our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI. If you live in the Knoxville area and looking for a spiritual home, we encourage you to join us and experience the 1500-year-old liturgical tradition of the Byzantine Rite. If you are visiting Tennessee, we are located in close proximity to the Smoky Mountain National Park and related recreational areas. We would be glad to have you join us.

O Lord, as You had shown from on high the splendor of the firmament, so did You show on earth the splendor of the dwelling place of your holy glory. Make it stand firm forever and ever and accept the supplications which we offer unceasingly to You through your Mother. O Lord, You are the Life and Resurrection of us all.
Troparion, Dedication of the Church of the Resurrection

You have made the Church a resplendent heaven, enlightening all the faithful. Therefore we stand in the midst of this holy dwelling place and cry out to You: Make firm this house, O Lord.
