I'm interested in visiting a greek orthodox church in the USA?
I live in North Carolina and am interested in seeing how various church denominations worship. So I'm looking into visiting a local Greek Orthodox Church. But I have a few questions:
1. Would I be welcome, as an outsider. I know some denominations are less friendly to people outside of their denomination. Would the Greek Orthodox congregation be offended at me being there?
2. These service titles are very unfamiliar (I'm protestant). It looks like the Divine Liturgy is what I might want to attend on Sunday morning. Is that the right one?
3. What in the world is Orthos?
a. I'm not interested in their fairs. (Although, I really wish I hadn't missed our towns Greek festival.) I want to worship with them, not eat their food.
b. I was hoping more for a definition of Orthos as it pertains to church service. Not teeth, but thanks.

The Greek Orthodox Church in Greensboro, NC has a community fair a couple of times a year ( lots of baklava). Check their schedule and visit the next one. Take the opportunity to chat up the congregation and the priest.
Personally, I think you would be better off going right to the source - Zeus.
Hey, moron, the point is the fair is a time to meet with them about worshiping with them.
