Unfortunatley, due to the surge in catechumens and subsequent growth of the Church, and shortage of clergy, we are unable to celebrate services in Valdosta at the present time. The mission is "paused". The closest parish of the Orthodox Church in America is St. Justin Martyr Orthodox Church, Jacksonville, FL. Prior to COVID, the Valdosta mission met monthly, but, when the mission did not immediately repopulate after COVID, resources were moved elswhere to plant a church. Please accept our sincere apologies. Once we have available clergy we will restart the mission.
What is the Orthodox Church?
“The Orthodox Christian Church is evangelical, but not Protestant.
It is orthodox, but not Jewish. It is catholic, but not Roman.
It is not denominational, it is pre-denominational.
It has believed, taught, preserved, defended, and died for the
Faith of the Apostles since the Day of Pentecost nearly 2,000 years ago.”
