Informative classes on Orthodox Christianity for inquirers are held weekly at St. Sebastian Orthodox Church: the next one is this evening, Wednesday July 10, at 7:00 p.m. at 1819 N. Carson Street.

The Orthodox Church is the original Christian Church established by Jesus Christ, given to His Apostles, and described in the New Testament. There was one Church until a split separated Orthodox East from Latin West in the 11th century, but the Orthodox Faith and practice has continued unaltered for two thousand years. Saint Sebastian was a missionary Orthodox priest who traveled throughout northern Nevada at the turn of the twentieth century.
