About Orthodox Christianity
The Orthodox Church understands itself as the Church founded by Christ and his Apostles, continued without break for two thousand years. What follows is a brief, non-technical introduction to the faith we hold — written for visitors, inquirers, and anyone curious. If a question arises, please write or call; it's our joy to talk about these things.
Where to begin
Introduction to Orthodox Christianity — a short orientation for those new to the Orthodox Church.
The Symbol of Faith — the Nicene Creed, recited at every Liturgy, which gathers in a few lines what the Church has always confessed.
The God we worship
God — the God confessed by the Orthodox Church: one in essence, three in persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ — who he is, what he has done, and what it means for us.
The life of the Church
Salvation — what the Orthodox Church means by this word.
The Saints — those who have lived the Christian life to its end, and what their friendship means for us.
