The Orthodox Church worships God in continuity with the earliest Church, and as such is the oldest Church.

It is a Church of balance: between the mystical and the real; between spirituality and theology; between worship and service of humanity. Everything is in balance, otherwise known as "right worship" (Orthodox).

It is not a denomination, but rather pre-denominational. It is not a religion but rather a life with God in Christ.

The Orthodox Church worships God in "spirit and truth" and dynamically incarnates that truth in every age - empowering all people from all walks of life to love God, others, and themselves.
