Summary/Abstract: Modern mission of evangelization in the Orthodox Church can’t manifest different like the traditional way, because this kind of Christianity combine in liturgical expression the “incomprehensible” liturgical texts, the beauty of singing from Orthodox services and the fascinating Byzantine icons. The starting point of our mission should always be the liturgy, the catechetical method bringing also the intellect, not the hole spiritual needs of humankind. Knowing moral and catechetical values of Christianity, in liturgical celebration, we can learn a living mode of orthopraxy, in the communion of Christ Church.
