This response is centered in the Eucharist, where the world
is gathered and offered, where persons become communion,
and where the future Kingdom enters the present as promise.
From this source flows an ethos capable of healing division,
restoring meaning, and opening creation toward its fulfill-
ment.
Orthodoxy, therefore, proves to be not only a memory of
the past, but a possibility for the future. Its contribution to the
modern world will depend on its ability to remain faithful to
its deepest truth, while speaking to the concrete realities of our
time.
For the world does not seek ideas alone. It seeks life.
And it is this life that the Church is called to offer.
