Catechism & Theology Courses  

At Assumption Greek Orthodox Church, our Catechism & Theology Courses provide a space for both seekers and lifelong Orthodox Christians to deepen their faith.

Catechism is the process of learning the core teachings of the Orthodox Church—Scripture, doctrine, worship, and the spiritual life. Those preparing to enter the Church through Baptism or Chrismation are called catechumens, and these courses guide them on their journey of faith and integration into the life of the Church.

But these classes are not only for catechumens. They are also open to anyone in our parish community who desires to deepen their understanding of Orthodoxy. Led by our clergy in a welcoming small-group setting, sessions are held throughout the year and often include reading together, studying a book, or discussing practical topics on the Orthodox way of life.

Whether you are new to Orthodoxy or have been part of the Church for many years, our Catechism & Theology gatherings provide an opportunity to strengthen your knowledge, renew your spiritual life, and share fellowship with others walking the same path.
