The '''Orthodox Church of France''' (''l'Eglise Orthodoxe de France'' or ''l'Eglise Orthodoxe Catholique de France'', a.k.a. ''l'ECOF'') was a group of [[Western Rite]] parishes in France formed under the auspices of [[Vladimir Lossky]] and [[Jean-Nectaire (Kovalesky) of Saint-Denis|Evgraph Kovalesky]] in the 1930s and 1940s. It has suffered several internal breaks, and the main extant body is now known as the '''''Union des Associations Cultuelles Orthodoxes de Rite Occidental''''' (UACORO) (the Union of Western Rite Orthodox Worship Associations).
