It is not in a specific place, nor in a privileged temple, nor on certain celebrations or chosen days, but in every instant of life, in all places that the Christian proclaims his thanksgiving. Going through our life as in a celebration, certain that God is always everywhere, we sing while we work, we travel to the singing of hymns, we conduct ourselves in everything as citizens of heaven.

St. Clement of Alexandria

The contemplation of nature abates the fever of the soul, and banishes all insincerity and presumption.

St. Basil the Great (329 - 379)

in ″The Greek Patristic View of Nature″ by D.B. Wallace-Hadrill

What is the Orthodox The Face of God...

VIEW OUR NEW FILM: The Face of God...

The OFT announces the release of The Face of God. Produced by the OFT, and written and directed by Fr Kaleeg Hainsworth, this film is about God, nature, faith, and the experience of Orthodox communities around the world facing changes in their lives during this time of climate crisis.

We are showcasing our most important Church voices, highest ranking hierarchs, scientists, politicians, lay leaders, theologians, and communities around the world, and gathering the witness of the whole church on the defining issue of our time.

Fr. John Kaleeg Hainsworth and the film crew are hard at work and regularly posting updates on social media about their adventures and progress in making the film. Check out the film’s Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages for more updates.

Welcome

The Orthodox Fellowship of the Transfiguration (OFT) exists to hallow God’s Name “on earth as it is in heaven” by seeking the transfiguration of creation through the activation of the Christian calling toward transfigured life. In the context of the liturgical life of the Church, the OFT seeks to help extend the transfiguring activity of the sacraments into all creation through ascetic practice, the keeping of the commandments, and the acquisition of virtue, thus restoring the beauty and integrity of God’s earthly temple. Find out more . . .
We cordially invite you to explore our website, and humbly ask you to offer us feedback on how it succeeds and how it can be made better.
