I welcome you to our website OIKOU.org. As you visit and offer your insights with us, you'll enlighten our abode with your warmth and nature. We are truly grateful to you for your visit here and hope to share memorable moments throughout the year.

As we manifest our Orthodox faith; in our lives, our homes, and our communities: "the Church should offer once more this simple, yet fulfilled way of life to its own believers as well as to the wider world. Humanity needs a simpler way of life, a renewed asceticism, for the sake of creation." 

His All Holiness reminds us that central to Orthodox theology is the idea of “metanoia” which he said could translate from the Greek as meaning a “shift of mind, a total change of heart”. Join me in wishing His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew many years of health " εις πολλά έτη "...
