"We have concluded that when the principle of racial division (i.e. phyletism) is juxtaposed with the teaching of the Gospel and the constant practice of the Church, it is not only foreign to it, but also completely opposed, to it. We decree the following in the Holy Spirit: 1. We reject and condemn racial division, that is, racial differences, national quarrels and disagreements in the Church of Christ, as being contrary to the teaching of the Gospel and the holy canons of our blessed fathers, on which the holy Church is established and which adorn human society and lead it to Divine piety. 2. In accordance with the holy canons, we proclaim that those who accept such division according to races and who dare to base on it hitherto unheard-of racial assemblies are foreign to the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church and are real schismatics."

    Hi Loula,

    This book below looks terrific although it may be a little advanced for a toddler. However, in another year or so she may be ready to have someone read her the stories.


    By Zoe Kanavas

    Beautifully illustrated Bible stories for young readers from both the Old and New Testaments. Translated from the Greek, the stories are theologically Orthodox. They are written in a fascinating style that will keep the interest of the very young (to whom they can be read), or for those up to age 14. 162 pages, hardcover.
