Welcome to the website of Dormition Skete, located in the mountains outside of beautiful Buena Vista, Colorado. We are an Orthodox Christian monastery, living according to the traditions handed down to us by the holy fathers and mothers of the Orthodox Church.
Our monastery is entirely self-supporting. We do not solicit contributions for our continuing existence, although we do greatly appreciate them.
Dormition Skete offers some of the finest icons available in the world. We offer hand-painted panel icons and frescoes, as well as mounted icons. Further, we also produce some of the highest quality incense available, along with many other products relating to the Orthodox Faith.
Holy Apostles Convent, our sister monastery, translates the Holy Scriptures and the Lives of the Saints from the original Greek texts, and publishes them in extraordinarily high quality books. All of the convent publications are lavishly adorned with icons throughout the text for the reader's edification and enjoyment. Please take the time to visit their website, too, at http://www.HolyApostlesConvent.org
Please take some time to explore our website, and we hope you will order some of the fruits of our labors.

Announcing Wishlists
!!!
We are happy to announce that we have now added Wishlists to this Webstore. Now you can save all of those items you’d like to purchase for later.
Are you looking at an item you may wish to purchase sometime? Simply press the Wishlist button on that item you are viewing. If you would like it to be placed in a special folder, press on the drop down portion of the wishists button. From there, you can choose a different folder, or add a new folder right from that page.
You can add as many wishlists as you would like, and can make them either private or public. Are you having an upcoming wedding or baptism? You can now make a public wishlist for each event, place the items you would like in them, and send out a link to all those you would like invite to your event to look at your wishlist and purchase items from it.
When others purchase your items, you can choose to have the items they purchase deleted from your wishist, and you can also choose to be notified of their purchases via email.
You can also mark how many of the items you need, and set their priority.
We hope you enjoy this new functionality.
