About Us

The Orthodox Church is the first Christian Church, the Church founded by the Lord Jesus Christ and described in the pages of the New Testament. Her history can be traced in unbroken continuity all the way back to Christ and His Twelve Apostles.

The Orthodox Church is evangelical, but not Protestant. It is orthodox, but not Jewish. It is catholic, but not Roman. It isn't non-denominational. It is PRE-DENOMINATIONAL. It has believed, taught, preserved, defended, and died for the Faith of the Apostles since the Day of Pentecost more than 2,000 years ago.
