COVID-19 and
Challenges in the Orthodox Church

Covid–19 is a horrific disease. It is enveloping the world, with more than ten million cases and hundreds of thousands of deaths. A cure is nowhere in sight, and a search for a vaccine is ongoing. The disease is challenging individuals and societies alike, in terms of social interactions, economic well-being, and community engagement. The Church is also experiencing challenges during this difficult period.
The Orthodox Christian Studies Center of Fordham University and the National Council of Churches USA are pleased to present the first of a series of webinars highlighting some of these ecclesial challenges. The discussion will also highlight how the Church is striving to meet these challenges, as well as the opportunity arising from this task for the Orthodox churches to do this ministry together.
The broadcast will be live-streamed and open to all who have pre-registered. The event will include some time for audience questions. This event is free and open to the public. Pre-registration is required for the live webinar.

The OCSC and NCC thank the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America for hosting this webinar.
Serving as a leading voice of witness to the living Christ in the public square since 1950, 
the National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA (NCC) brings together 38 member communions 
and more than 40 million Christians in a common expression of God's love and promise of unity.
