Orthodox Community of Saint Drostan

News, articles and details of services from the Orthodox Community of Saint Drostan, in the ancient parish of Deer, Aberdeenshire. The Orthodox Church is evangelical, but not Protestant. It is orthodox, but not Jewish. It is catholic, but not Roman. It isn't non-denominational – it is pre-denominational. It has believed, taught, preserved, defended and died for the Faith of the Apostles since the Day of Pentecost 2000 years ago.
