In the frames of 2008 International Year of Languages

 

Church Slavonic is the liturgical language of several Christian Orthodox churches, first of all, in the ‘traditional’ South European countries – Bulgarian Orthodox Church, Macedonian Orthodox Church and Serbian Orthodox Church.

Some English-speaking parishes also use Church Slavonic in the service.

Particularly, the Orthodox Church of America, the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, some parishes of the Greek-Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem – in the United States; some parishes in Australia, Canada, and the UK.
