SAINT NECTAN
Welcome to the Saint Nectan Orthodox Study Society, a small, new branch of the Western Rite Orthodox Mission within the Russian Orthodox Church outside Russia. It holds meetings in North Devon and its members are finding out all about the Orthodox Church as it is here in England, for English people. 
All people remotely interested in the Orthodox form of Christianity - the world's oldest and second largest Christian Church - are welcome to come to Saint Nectan's meetings and Services (see schedules above). Orthodoxy teaches the fullest and purest form of the original Christianity taught by Christ and His Apostles. All other Christian groups and churches have at some time in the past broken away from the original Church founded by Christ and are therefore now incomplete and the poorer. We invite you to join with us.
