Weekly Announcements from
Saint Andrew's Malankara Orthodox Mission

"We thank God that those faithful people have found the true faith which once and for all was delivered to the saints.  This faith which remains the best-kept secret in America because of our laziness.  Because we have been busy taking care of our little ethnic ghettoes.  It is time we let this light shine.  America needs the Orthodox Faith! I said to the Evangelical Orthodox this past Sunday.  I said: Welcome home!  Today I say to America: Come home America!  Come home to the faith of Peter and Paul!"
- Metropolitan Philip of Blessed Memory

Come home to the Orthodox Christian faith at Saint Andrew's Malankara Orthodox Mission.  We are a community where you can reconnect to our beautiful faith, and grow with fellow Orthodox Christians in the image and likeness of God.  If you are interested in coming home to the Orthodox Church or joining our God-loving community email us at ComeAndSee@SaintAndrewLI.org

As a young pastor, he set out to Russia to convert the local people to become "Bible-believing Christians" - only to be converted to the Orthodox Christian faith.
