24-hour internet-based Orthodox station goes live

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL—“The Rudder,” Orthodox Christian Network’s second internet-based radio station, is now broadcasting live.

“The Rudder” features some of the most beautiful Orthodox Christian liturgical music from around the world 24 hours a day via internet connection.

The Priestmonk Seraphim Dedes of Saint Gregory Palamas Monastery in Ohio, and formerly of Mt. Athos, and Stelios Kontakiotis, master chanter and choir director at Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral, are advising OCN on liturgical musical selections and drawing from the rich beauty of Orthodox liturgical music from around the world and in many different languages, including the ground breaking work being done in English.

“The Rudder” will also feature teaching programs designed to educate and edify the Orthodox and non-Orthodox listener alike.

OCN is committed to building a national, sustainable, and effective media witness for the Orthodox Churches in America by using as many media ministries as possible. This second internet based radio outreach joins “The Ark” as another way to fulfill the mission of ministry and outreach for America.

Orthodox Christian Network is the official media agency of the Standing Conference of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the Americas and develops effective ways to use modern media to raise awareness of our Orthodox faith in the minds of the general population and to be an “assistant” to local parish priests in keeping our faithful attached to the Church between worship services. OCN also produces the nationally syndicated radio program “Come Receive The Light.”
