​
Expert iconographer, Theodoros Papadopoulos, from Larissa, Greece, will be visiting Salem, Oregon. Theodoros will be lecturing on Byzantine iconography after a liturgical service on June 7th, at the Greek Orthodox Mission Church of Salem, Oregon. There will be a Q&A to follow. The service will start at 6pm and Theodoros will begin his lecture roughly around 7pm.

All are welcome to join and to come learn about this ancient and holy art. Byzantine Iconography has an over 2,000 year history of development dating back to the pre-Christian Jewish era and was perfected in the Christian Byzantine Empire. This ancient art is continued in the Eastern Orthodox Church throughout the world.

The Journey to Fullness class will take place on Saturdays during Orthodoxy 101  

What is A Journey to Fullness?
A Journey to Fullness is an Orthodox Christian series developed to introduce people to the Orthodox Christian faith. It was developed as a tool for use within Orthodox parishes to:
 
• help prepare inquirers to become catechumens
• introduce inquirers to the depth and beauty of the Orthodoxy Christian faith
• serve as a point-of-entry for people searching for a safe, unchanging spiritual home
• provide a high-quality, easy to use, and theologically sound educational resource
• give parishes a compelling resource to shift the focus from annual fundraisers to outreach
• eliminate misunderstanding & conflict by helping Orthodox clergy speak to American Christians
• help Orthodox better explain the faith to their non-orthodox spouses
• help grow and strengthen Orthodox parishes
