Abstract

The theme of the Christian mission has been set and is set with acuity in the last time. This is because the essential duty of the Church in any place and time is that of bringing to the world the good news of salvation of all people through Jesus Christ’s work. Nevertheless, the mission cannot be accomplished chaotically or by chance, but the Church is called to have a missionary strategy of her own in any place and time. In the recent years, among other things this strategy must take into account the phenomenon of secularization, which is becoming more and more evident in the contemporary world. Therefore, the Church should articulate her mission, considering this phenomenon, but at the same time, putting into work her entire theological and cultural “arsenal”. Orthodoxy is aware that its mission must take into account the Trinitarian, Christological and Pneumatological coordinates of the mission. The Holy Liturgy contains an exceptional missionary potential and the Christian mission should use it.
