We know that the Orthodox Church lives by its communion with its Lord and Chief Jesus Christ, who has said unto His disciples:<strong>&nbsp;\u201cI am the vine and ye are the branches\u2026 As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me\u201d (John 15:4-5).<\/strong>&nbsp;And so we, who partake of Our Lord, constitute together one body, according to the apostle\u2019s words, \u201cfor the body is not one member, but many\u201d (1 Cor. 12:14). Thus, our web page narrates not only the events of the parish\u2019s life as such, but also tells what is most important in the everyday life of some of our parishioners and introduces visitors to their creative works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The CHURCH OF CHRIST THE SAVIOR&nbsp;is a parish of the&nbsp;Orthodox Church in America,&nbsp;Diocese of New York and New Jersey.
