The Sacred Traditions are the traditions which have come down from
the Holy Church and Apostles.
The American Church as did the ancient church carefully guards the
inward life of the Holy Church from those outside her embrace. Our
Holy Mysteries, Canon Laws, Apostolic Succession, Liturgical Rites,
Tenets and reason why we are an Autocephalous are kept from the
gaze of those that are merely curious and who being outside the
church and uncommitted, may easily misunderstand and misinterpret
them.
“What harm is it if I shall find out also? Sick people also ask for wine,
but if it is given at the wrong time it produces disorder to the mind, and
there are two evil consequences: the sick one dies, and the physician is
slandered” (Catechetical Lectures chp.12).
Please do not misinterpret our protection of those things that we hold
Sacred, we are a welcoming community and if you are truly interested
in the teaching of Orthodoxy we invite you to come to visit us every
3rd Sunday of the month from 5-6 pm, and we will be glad to speak
with you.
To make an appointment please call 1 323-255-6911
All blessings
The Holy Synod.
