Book excerpt: Excerpt from The People of the Eastern Orthodox Churches, the Separated Churches of the East, and Other Slavs: Report of the Commission Appointed by the Missionary Department of New England to Consider the Work of Co-Operating With the Eastern Orthodox Churches, the Separated Churches of the East, and Other Slavs This is the report in full, of which extracts were read at the Department Council of New England in Providence, in October, 1912, by the committee appointed to consider the work of co-operating with the Eastern Orthodox Churches, the Separated Churches of the East, and other Slavs. The report has been somewhat expanded and brought up to date. Foreigners are pressing into New England in increasing numbers, and the Germanic, Scandinavian, and English-speaking immigrants are now being succeeded not only by the Italians, but by the Greeks, Syrians, and many Slavic peoples of Eastern Europe. The problem of dealing with these races is no longer a theoretical one, but one that comes into almost every one of our home towns in an acute and insistent way. Co-operation with these fellow Christians, and a helpful ministry to them in this new land, will, we trust, ultimately result in the restoration of inter-communion, after centuries of separation, between East and West; but the divisions of centuries are not remedied in a few months, and there must be a large preliminary clearing away of misunderstandings, and a great increase of knowledge, before we can deal helpfully and practically with this vital home question of the foreigner in our New England towns and cities. The ignorance of the average American about these latest comers to our shores is profound! All Slavs are indifferently called Polanders; some, by a strange perversion of facts, are called Huns, the name of no Slavic race, but of their oppressors in Hungary. Albanians, Greeks, Turks, and Syrians, and any other unknown races, are often indifferently termed "Dagoes." Russian and Syrian Orthodox Christians are called "Greek Catholics," even in official government reports, this being the name properly applied to men of the Greek race who have submitted to the Papal obedience.

Book excerpt: Western European Christendom finds it difficult to comprehend the Eastern Orthodox Church because it knows little about the practice and doctrines of Orthodoxy. Even what is known is overlaid by many strata of prejudices and misunderstandings, partly political in nature. One of the obstacles has been the natural tendency to confound the ideas and customs of the Orthodox Church with familiar parallels in Roman Catholicism. To escape this tradition pitfall, Ernst Benz focuses on icon painting as a logical place to begin his examination of the Orthodox Church. Beginning with a brilliant discussion of the importance of icons in the Eastern Church--and the far-reaching effects of icons on doctrine as well as art--Benz counteracts the confusion, explaining simply and clearly the liturgy and sacraments, dogma, constitution and law of Eastern Orthodoxy. In brief history, he describes the rise of Orthodox national churches, schismatic churches, and churches in exile; the role of monasticism and its striking differences from Roman Catholic monasticism; the missionary work of the Orthodox Church; and the influence of Orthodoxy on politics and culture. The role of the church can be defined in terms of the image. Benz writes that the church exists so that "members may be incorporated into the image of Jesus Christ a in that individual believers are aechanged into his likeness'" as Paul writes in the second letter to the Corinthians. Thus, Orthodox theology holds up the icon as the true key to the understanding of Orthodox dogma. The Eastern Orthodox Church will be valuable to anyone interested in learning more about the church, its thought, its life, and its ideals.
