Foreign
Orders for Cassettes
- Our Guarantee
Most of the messages are sent to us by churches that have recorded
speakers at retreats and conferences. Some tapes are sent by individuals who have collected
a few of their favorites and want to see a wider distribution. Many of the tapes were
recorded by OCC at conferences. We will purchase high quality tapes messages. Please contact
us first.
As time and money allow, we will go about anywhere to record good
Orthodox teachers. Please contact us as early as possible before your event so arrangements
can be worked out.
Tapes have been sent to all 50 states and many foreign countries. The
interest in the teachings of the historic traditions of Christianity is increasing rapidly
and people who have never been to an Orthodox Church ask us for tapes. About 50% of those
requesting tapes are not Orthodox.
Tapes are loaned only to the USA, and Canada. Postal expenses and customs/duty make it
actually less expensive to purchase for foreign orders than to loan.
Most of the people who borrow tapes
send a donation
that covers a great deal of the direct costs. Since the library is in a
private residence and we volunteer much of their time, the
overhead is low. But there are expenses as the ministry grows. Most of
the income comes from the sale of cassettes and CD’s to individuals,
bookstores and churches. It is our hope that soon, the library will
become large enough to allow us to do this on a full time basis.
If you call after 5 p.m. Central Time you’ll have a better chance of
finding the Lourie’s at home. But call and leave your message throughout
the day. Since this is also a private residence, we never answer the
phone as a business. So don’t be surprised when we just say “hello”
instead of “Orthodox Christian Cassettes.”
(Please don't call after 9 p.m. or before 7 a.m. Central Time. Thanks)
OCC will mail purchased recordings anywhere in the world. Loan
are limited to North America, US territories, APO’s and FPO’s and
Canada. The cost of mailing overseas makes it too expensive to send tapes
and return them.
OCC wants you to be satisfied with what you borrow
or purchase from us. If you have any problems with any purchase, please
contact us to see how we can make it right. Mistakes do happen and we
rely on our customers to tell us if they find one. Thanks for helping and
caring.
Compact Discs and Cassettes
If the number has a CD after it, it means the
message is available on CD and Cassette.
If there is no CD after the number it means it is
not on CD at the time of printing the catalog. In February 2005 we have
120 messages on CD We are editing and re-mastering many of the messages
on cassette to put them on CD. Check with our web site or contact us if
you want to know if a message is now on CD.
This cassette means this series of cassette messages is available
packaged in an album.
 When you see this CD it means this series of messages is packaged in aCD
album and is also available in MP3 format.
The smaller CD symbol means this message is available as an individual
CD or cassette
How To Order Cassettes
Orthodox Christian Cassettes has over 700 teaching tapes on the historic
Christian faith. Some of the teachers are lifelong Orthodox and some are
newcomers to the Church, coming from other brands of Christianity. At
some of the conferences speakers are Protestant or Roman Catholic. All
are committed to the truths of the Holy Bible and upholding the faith of
the apostles.
All the messages are on audio cassette and vary in length from 30 to 90
minutes. All the tapes are available for sale and most may be borrowed
for two weeks then returned. This service is funded by cassette sales and
the donations of the borrowers. Orders are shipped out as soon as
possible, usually within 24 hours. We believe good service is what people
want and we do our best to be prompt. Thanks for your order!
You may purchase
individual cassettes and CD’s.
Each cassette is $4 each. Individual CD’s are $6 each. Please add $2 per
order for mailing. All orders are sent by U.S. Postal Service. Your
payment with your order is greatly appreciated.
You may borrow the
tapes.
If you cannot afford to purchase cassettes or you just want to listen
before you decide to purchase, four tapes may be borrowed for two
weeks for a suggested donation of $7. This two weeks begins when you
receive the tapes and ends two weeks after their arrival at
your home. This is usually enough time to listen to the cassettes. If
tapes are not returned by the assigned date included with your order you
could loose borrowing privileges. Please let us know if two weeks
is not enough time and we’ll extend your loan time. If tapes are not
returned you will be billed $4 for each tape plus $5 per order minus any
donation you sent for the tapes.
Eight tapes may be borrowed for one month for a suggested donation
of $12. The same rules on borrowing apply.
You may borrow for free but if you are able we ask you to
help with expenses of about $7 per order of four tapes. This will cover
our costs for postage, packaging, and cassettes. However, any size
contribution will be appreciated. If you decide to purchase tapes after
listening, send enough money to cover the purchase minus the donation you
sent for that order. OCC will retain the right to refuse service to
those who abuse the privileges.
You may rent the CD’s
CD’s will be rented out in album sets only. The cost of rental at this
printing is $2.50 per CD. So a set of 12 CD’s which has a sale price of
$75 would rent for $30. This rental may be applied to the purchase price
should you decide to keep them. Rental time is one month for CD’s.
OCC on the Internet
OCC maintains a web site on
the Internet. www.OrthodoxTapes.Org
You may also send us questions and order cassettes by e-mail. Our e-mail
address is OCcassette@aol.com. If you are purchasing tapes by e-mail,
you may use a credit card or arrange for a credit account with OCC.
Our list of names is not made available to anyone. Every year we record
several new messages and add these to our library. If you would like to
be notified by e-mail about four or five times a year about new messages
and special offers, give us your e-mail address by e-mail
