about the project
Greetings, dear brothers and sisters in Christ!
In the modern world, full of temptations and seductions, it is sometimes very difficult to resist and not fall into sin. Many people who are far from Orthodoxy feel in their souls that they are living incorrectly, but cannot understand what is wrong. Those who have already discovered the Orthodox faith begin to understand that they need to learn to live with God all their lives.
Regardless of faith in God, every person wants to live happily. Everyone interprets happiness for themselves in their own way, but real, true happiness can only be known when the Lord enters human life. Without God, a person’s life, even filled with material goods, is often gray, boring and dull. So how can you let Christ into your life? This is exactly what the Orthodox faith teaches.
Our Orthodox website is specially designed for those who want to understand the peculiarities of the Orthodox faith and churching. Our guests can be both new Christians and long-time churchgoers, as well as those still doubting the choice of their own path in life.
Section "Prayer Book"
The life of an Orthodox person is unthinkable without prayer. The Apostle Paul, through the Bible, calls us to unceasing prayer, and the holy fathers also teach this. A special section of the Prayer Book will introduce you to a large number of prayers for all occasions. Here you can find both general prayers to the Lord and the Most Holy Theotokos, as well as individual prayers to your favorite Orthodox saints.
Section "Spiritual Life"
The Spiritual Life section contains answers to pressing questions in the daily life of a Christian. How to fast correctly, why you need to go to church, whether you can believe in God “in your soul,” why abortion is murder - you can understand all this and much more by visiting this section.
Section "Calendar"
Church life has its own special rhythm, dictated by significant dates and Christian holidays. In addition to the main Great Holidays, the Church honors various memorable dates associated with important events in the history of Christianity. You can learn the essence and meaning of a wide variety of church holidays from the Calendar section.
Section "Icons"
An important part of Orthodoxy is the veneration of holy icons. An icon is an image, looking at which, the human mind ascends to the Prototype of the Lord, the Mother of God, and the saints. Prayer in front of an icon encourages us to be more attentive and helps us overcome distraction. The Icons section will tell you about the images revered in Orthodoxy, many of which are miraculous.
Section “Lives of Saints”
It is impossible to imagine Christianity without heroism. Orthodoxy is based on saints who confessed Christ with their lives, and after their death help us to follow the Christian path. The Lives of the Saints section will tell you amazing stories about the lives of ascetics of piety, their worldly path, and the knowledge of God.
Section “Churches and Temples”
The Church is the earthly house of God, and there is no Orthodoxy without churches. By attending divine services in holy places, the human soul is cleansed and receives divine grace, and is healed of sins and passions. The Churches and Temples section will take you on a journey through churches and monasteries throughout the Orthodox world.
Entering the path of the Orthodox faith, a person is transformed both internally and externally. Let us try to make this path of spiritual development understandable and bring joy from approaching God.
God bless us all, dear brothers and sisters!
