The Ecumenical Orthodox-Catholic Church (EOCC) is Part of the Universal Church of Christ. We are a Christ-Love Centred Ecumenical Orthodox Church (Eastern Rite). For Fifteen years we have been an autonomous Orthodox-Catholic Church, grown from one Bishop in Uganda to more Bishops, Priests, Christians and Missions all over the World.

This is God’s work, and we give Him glory for all He is doing, transforming lives, communities, and nations. We seek to be a church planting movement wherever we are established, bringing the Gospel, the love of Christ, Hope and the power found in Sacred Mysteries (Sacraments) and Prayer graciously for all peoples.

BELIEFS OF THE ECUMENICAL ORTHODOX-CATHOLIC CHURCH
One Holy, Apostolic, Orthodox-Catholic Church

  1. We are a Christian Church deeply rooted in CHRIST. We believe in One God: We Believe in the Holy Trinity: One God in Three Persons.
  2. We believe in the Only Eternally begotten Son of God-Christ Jesus, the Only Messiah and Saviour of the World born of the Blessed Virgin Mary whom we hold as Theotokos.
  3. We believe in The Holy Spirit, the Giver of Life and the One who spiritually baptizes and sanctifies humanity. He proceeds from the Father.
  4. We believe all Gifts of the Holy Spirit are active today and available for the uplifting of all true believers. We uphold The Holy Bible as the truly inspired Word of God.
  5. We believe and uphold the teachings of the Ancient Apostolic Fathers held by the One universal church of Christ before AD 1054. The Nicene and Apostles creed being the standard. (The first Seven Ecumenical Councils of The ONE Church of Christ)
  6. We believe in the Seven Sacraments as Holy Mysteries of God’s Divine power and healing upon humanity and uphold to the laying of hands. All our priests and bishops are ordained and consecrated under the authority of apostolic succession.
  7. We believe in the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Eucharist.
  8. We believe in and uphold the Sanctity of Life. All Life begins at the moment of conception up to natural death.
  9. We believe and uphold the sacredness of Marriage and Family life. 10. Our firm belief is that marriage is a sacramental union of an adult man and an adult Woman who join each other in love out of consent, and to bring forth children. The family is the first unit of the church.
    We work with governments and other churches to create a world of peace, economic empowerment and contribute to local community development through our church programs and community projects, but not at the cost of faithfulness and truths of our faith in Christ.
