...is To Proclaim the Faith of the Undivided Church

     

     

     Orthodoxy believes that it has maintained,
without distorting addition or damaging
detraction the Faith of the Apostles, the Faith of
the undivided Church. It rejoices in this Faith
and feels the urge to proclaim it to all. Orthodoxy
is not just for Greeks or Slavs or Arabs or
Romanians. It is for all who would receive it as
the most appropriate expression of the Christian
experience. For this reason, the Orthodox
Church is a missionary Church, and we
Orthodox Christians are called to be
missionaries. To be an Orthodox Christian is to
respond to this challenge.
