The Orthodox Church in America (OCA) is an autocephalous Orthodox Christian Church dedicated to fulfilling the commandment of Christ to spread the faith globally. With a mission that emphasizes making disciples of all nations, the OCA serves a diverse community through various parishes, clergy, and ministries across the United States.

The church is led by a hierarchy that includes a Primate and a Holy Synod, guiding the faithful in worship, teachings, and community outreach. Regular assemblies, such as the All-American Council, facilitate collaboration and governance among clergy and lay representatives, ensuring the church remains responsive to the needs of its congregations.
