The place has a sign in front that says it's open from 10 to 4 on Tuesdays and I went there and every door was locked. Every single door. It looked like no one is here. Don't waste your time driving here. It's completely inaccessible....

Looking to worship God and the church is closed with no explanation. Being an orthodox Christian...very sad!! How can the doors be shut? This church leadership should read psalm 122. How can I help...

The Malbis Memorial Church, located in Baldwin County, Alabama, is a Greek Orthodox Church known for its intricate and extensive mosaics and paintings. It was officially dedicated on January 3, 1965, and the opening service for the church was conducted by Archbishop Iakovos of America. Unlike other churches, Malbis Memorial Church has never had an active congregation, but religious observances, special services, and events, such as weddings, do take place. Jason Malbis, a Greek immigrant who spent the first half of his life in a monastery, founded Malbis Plantation with William Papageorge in 1906 by purchasing 120 acres of land near Daphne, Alabama, for $5 per acre. Other Greek families joined them, eventually expanding the community to 85 people by 1920. The group became self-sufficient and established their own power plant, dairy, cannery, bank, garage, nursery, timber company, motel, and bakery in nearby Mobile, in addition to owning more than 10,000 acres of property. Malbis, sadly passed away in 1942 while in Greece. However, he left instructions for his survivors to build a Greek Orthodox church dedicated to the Theotokos in Malbis. The community fulfilled his wish in 1965, financing the construction of the Malbis Memorial Church through bread sales from the plantation's bakery in Mobile. Malbis's remains were later interred in a crypt within the church. Today, the Malbis Memorial Church is listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage, and the Malbis Plantation Historic District, which includes the church, was designated by the Alabama Historical Commission in 2008. While it does not have an active congregation, it continues to serve as a reminder of the strong Greek community that founded the plantation and contributed to the development of the area. Through the Prayers of The Theotokos, Savior save us! #orthodox #orthodoxchurch #malbis #daphnealabama #Alabama #jesus #greekorthodox #Orthodoxy #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxchurch #greekorthodox #jesus
