Description
Summary:This article explores the missionary implications of the Nicene Creed in Orthodox parishes, focusing on trinitarian theology, incarnation, and decolonizing mission. Through the lens of the Nicene Creed, the article highlights how Orthodox parishes reflect trinitarian communion and engage in eucharistic mission to transform society. The article also emphasizes decolonizing approaches to mission and discusses how the creed informs the social, spiritual, and cultural practices of parishes. The interplay of mission, theosis, and incarnational theology is central to understanding the Orthodox parish as a microcosm of divine love and communal unity. This study explores the call to justice, reconciliation, and decolonization of mission in line with the vision of the World Council of Churches.
