Religious & Spiritual Communities
Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) is a student group composed of both Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Christians. The Orthodox Church is one of the three main branches of Christianity, alongside Catholicism and Protestantism. It traces its roots directly to the early apostolic community and has maintained an unbroken tradition of faith and worship for over two thousand years. Orthodoxy makes up the majority of the Christian presence in Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the Caucasus, the Middle East, and East Africa. With an estimated 300 million members worldwide, it is one of the largest Christian traditions in the world. The Orthodox Church is known for its ancient liturgical worship, deep theological heritage, and emphasis on spiritual transformation through participation in the life of the Church and union with Christ.
Our goal as OCF is to foster a welcoming community where students of any background can grow in faith through the practices of Orthodox Christianity. Whether you are Orthodox or interested in learning more, we invite you to join us.
“There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.” (Ephesians 4: 4-6)
