This article or section needs to be "Orthodoxized"/MCBed, that is, rewritten from a Mainstream Chalcedonian Orthodox point of view. Specific recommendations for its Orthodoxizing may be found on the talk page. You can help OrthodoxWiki by editing it.

In religious organizations, the laity comprises all lay persons collectively. This can mean either any person who is not a member of the clergy or of any monastic order or, within such an order, a monastic who is not a priest.
