Houston, June 21, 2024
An institute dedicated to the study and examination of Orthodox matters in light of holy Tradition was recently launched.
The new Orthodox Studies Institute is based at St. Constantine College in Houston.
Dr. John Mark Reynolds, President of St. Constantine College, and Matthew Namee, Executive Director of the Orthodox Studies Institute (and founder of Orthodox History), announced the Institute in a recent email:
Happy feast of the Ascension of the Lord!
The Saint Constantine College is excited to announce the launch of the Orthodox Studies Institute (OSI), which exists to advance the study and application of Orthodox Christianity in faithfulness to Holy Tradition.
As national interest in the Orthodox Church grows in the United States, many of the faithful, as well as non-Orthodox, are seeking resources that faithfully represent the historical and spiritual tradition of Orthodox Christianity. OSI provides resources and educational opportunities, highlighting the historical witness and contemporary realities of global Orthodoxy.
The announcement also includes links to some of the Institute’s first offerings: a study on the priest shortage crisis facing Orthodoxy in America, a paper on deaconesses, and an archival collection of historical documents.
