WE BEGIN THE FIRST WEEK OF GREAT LENT! - 03/13/16
Last updated: 2017-06-17 09:43:10

The Lenten Spring has come! We embark on our journey to PASCHA: Great Lent. Parishes will have a host of services to lead and guide us on this spiritual sojourn in worship; calling us to fasting, acts of mercy in charity, and increased fervor in prayer. "Awake, O my soul! The end is drawing near. Why do you remain idle? Why do you refrain from preparing yourself for the day of the Lord? The time is growing short. Rise! The Judge is near, He stands at the doors. Your life will pass like a dream, like a flower the time of this life passes. Why do you care about foolish things and toil in vain?"  [Canon of Saint Andrew of Crete]
