It is better to eat meat and drink wine and not to eat the flesh of one's brethren through slander.

Abba Hyperechius

In last week’s bulletin there was a survey dealing with contemporary moral issues.  I noticed that 62% of the Orthodox Christians who participated in the survey said that they felt abortion should be legal.  Is this really what the Church teaches?
I've never fasted before, well at least not for a whole fasting season. And I'm afraid to start because the fasting guidelines look to be just too difficult for me. What should I do?

Welcome to Our Parish!

Christ the Savior Orthodox Church is a Pan-Orthodox Mission of the Diocese of Washington of the Orthodox Church in America. Our mission was planted to serve the Delmarva area (the eastern shore of Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia). We welcome all Orthodox Christians who live in the area and all who visit or vacation in Delmarva. And we also extend our warm welcome to all who are searching for a church that is in unbroken continuity with the Church of the Apostles.
