Waupaca Area Outreach
St. Macrina Chapel, Waupaca, WI
In December 2022, our parish began an outreach effort to offer services in the Waupaca - Stevens Point - Waushara County area. In December 2023, His Eminence Archbishop Daniel established it as "The Chapel of Saint Macrina the Younger, Waupaca, WI" as a dependency of Saint Matthew Church in Green Bay. The chapel is named for Saint Macrina "the Younger", also known as "the Teacher", who was the older sister of Saint Basil the Great and Saint Gregory of Nyssa. You can read her life on the OCA website here.
Until December 2025, services were held at the home of Dn. Spyridon and Mat. Photini Roegner. As of January 2026, we are meeting at the Ramada Inn, Waupaca WI, in the "Cupola" Conference Room.
The chapel community meets for services three or four times a month, with services led by a deacon most of the time. Divine Liturgy has been taking place about once every 4-6 weeks depending on the season. We have seen some growth in the past year and hope to continue to expand and grow in our mission to this part of rural Wisconsin!
Please reach out to Dn. Spyridon Roegner, the local contact, at his email address for more information.
