Assumption of the Holy Virgin Orthodox Church

Assumption of the Holy Virgin Orthodox Church A parish of the Orthodox Church in America We are God's people. We are the Body of Christ. We are brought together by the Holy Spirit.

We are a community of Orthodox Christians in the community of Clifton, New Jersey. We are part of the Diocese of New York and New Jersey of The Orthodox Church In America. Jesus said "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to the whole creation" (Mark 16:15). We exist to proclaim Christ's Good News in our small part of the world, both repeatedly to ourselves and to those around us. We preach

the Gospel through word and action, as we have received in our Orthodox tradition, through our public liturgical worship and praise of God, especially the Divine Liturgy (Eucharist); through teaching, both during worship (Scripture readings, hymns, sermons) and in educational settings (lectures, classes, discussions); and through service to others, both in our local community and in the world-wide community. We seek to "worship the Father in spirit and truth" (John 4:23). We constantly strive to reevaluate ourselves against the Gospel and grow in our Christian life. By living the Gospel in this way, we seek to follow Christ's directive: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 5:16). We invite all others to give glory to our Heavenly Father and to share our life in the risen Christ.
