THE EASTERN ORTHODOX CHURCH

The Eastern Orthodox Church is considered the oldest Christian tradition in the world, tracing its roots directly back to the apostles and the early Church. It is the mother of all Christian Churches, remaining the same since its founding. It is the dominant religion in Greece, Russia, Romania, Bulgaria, and many other countries. The countless number of its saints and the extraordinary miracles they work at every age, while in life and after their passing, as well as their revelations about the current and future events in the world, impress countless faithful and make atheists and non-believers change their views or become skeptical.

Preserving the teachings of the Ecumenical Councils and the richness of Holy Tradition, Orthodoxy offers a living connection to the faith of the early Christians. Its worship is centered on the Divine Liturgy, a deeply reverent and mystical service that draws believers into communion with God. The Church continues to uphold the apostolic faith, guided by the Holy Spirit, through the sacraments, prayer, and the lives of its saints.

Orthodoxy is not just a theology but a way of life. It is deeply incarnational, emphasizing the transformation of the whole person through union with Christ. The beauty of its liturgy, the fasting seasons, the veneration of icons, and the teachings of the Church Fathers all point toward a single goal: theosis, or participation in the divine nature. Across centuries and cultures, the Eastern Orthodox Church has remained steadfast in preserving the fullness of the Christian faith, offering spiritual clarity in an age of confusion.

This website is a personal labor of love, born from a profound gratitude for the miracles I have experienced worked by recent and older Orthodox saints. Their intercessions have touched my life in ways that have made me a better and happier person and drawn me into an authentic relationship with Christ and His Church. I created this site to share the beauty, truth, and mystery of Eastern Orthodoxy with others who are seeking or curious, and to offer a space for reflection, learning, and inspiration from the Church’s living tradition.
