Orthodox Church | Complete Package – Teaching Unit & Presentation Bundle | Religious Education

The “Orthodox Church – Faith, History & Culture” teaching unit series offers a comprehensive, modular set of lessons for secondary schools and vocational gymnasiums. This carefully structured series includes four units covering the historical roots, theological foundations, liturgical practices, and cultural significance of the Orthodox Church. The first unit introduces students to the origins of Orthodoxy, including the 1054 schism, core beliefs like the Trinity and Theosis, and an overview of liturgical worship and icon veneration. The second unit employs group work to explore everyday Orthodox practices such as sacraments, church festivals, and the role of clergy.
