We are The African Orthodox
Church founded by
+Archbishop George Alexander
McGuire in New York City in
1921.
We are divided into several
jurisdictions through out the
world. This call for a Unity
Synod of Bishops by
+Archbishop Waterman proved
to be a wonderful blessing.
The conclave of Bishops were
given the vision to create The
Communion of The African
Orthodox Churches Worldwide.
Our African Orthodox Church
is evangelical, but not
Protestant, it is Catholic, but not
Roman. It isn’s non-
denominational. It has
believed, taught, preserved,
defended and died for the Faith
of the Apostles since the Day of
Pentecost over 2,000 years
ago.”
