Ex-FIEC church explains switch to Eastern Orthodoxy

The leader of a former FIEC-affiliated church which became Eastern Orthodox in September has been explaining why they made the move.

Hope Church Halifax, which was part of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches, has become St Hilda’s Orthodox Church, part of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of the British Isles and Ireland. It now uses a Roman Catholic building, St Malachy’s, for its services.

One of the church’s leaders is Deacon Caedmon Clark, who was formerly known as Doug Clark before he took the name of his patron saint.
