I BELIEVE IN ONE GOD, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the On ly-begotten, begotten of the Father before all ages; light of Light: true God of true God; begotten, not made; of one essence with the Father; by Whom all things were made: Who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became man; And was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered, and was buried; And arose again on the third day according to the Scriptures; And ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of the Father; And shall come again, with glory, to judge both the living and the dead; Whose kingdom shall have no end. And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of Life; Who proceeds from the Father; Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; Who spake by the prophets. In One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. I look for the resurrection of the dead, And the life of the age to come. Amen.

We believe that God is one fullness of perfection; We believe that He is a perfect spirit, timeless, without beginning, all powerful and all-wise. God is everywhere, sees all, and knows before hand when something will happen. He is good beyond measure, just and All-Holy. He needs nothing and is the reason for everything that exists. Read More
For someone visiting an Orthodox Church for the first time, much appears strange and different from other churches. It is more than the language and service which may puzzle one, for the latter could be in any one of many languages, including English. What is this Church? Read More
One has to welcome rejection of the age-old separation of Christians, but only if this is done with the objective of disclosing the treasures of Orthodoxy, to bring those who have fallen away from the Church back to unity in Orthodoxy.
