Welcome
The Orthodox Church is the church founded
by our Lord Jesus Christ and through which
He continues to bestow His blessings and
grace upon mankind. ‘Orthodoxy’ means
‘right belief’ or ‘correct glory’–-the Orthodox
Church has faithfully preserved those
traditions and teachings handed down from
Jesus Christ to His Apostles to their
successors from generation to generation.
This care for the traditions of our fathers is
motivated by love and fidelity to the truth
and Divine origin of our faith.

Third Sunday of Lent
The Third Sunday of Lent is that of the Veneration of the
Cross. The cross stands in the midst of the church in the
middle of the Lenten season not merely to remind men of
Christ's redemption and to keep before them the goal of
their efforts, but also to be venerated as that reality by
which man must live to be saved. He who does not take
up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me (Matthew
10:38). For in the Cross of Christ Crucified lies both the
power of God and the wisdom of God for those being
saved (I Corinthians 1:24).
