THE GREAT FAST AND CANON OF ST. ANDREW BEGINS MARCH 11

From the pastor

Posted March 4th, 2008.

My dear children in Christ,

The season of bright sadness, the Great Fast, is almost upon us. Already the themes of Zaccheus, the publican and the Pharisee, and the prodigal son have begun “working” the soil of our hearts and preparing us to embark upon the path of repentance.

These lessons are all sign posts of the “Journey to the empty tomb by way of the cross.” To keep from losing our way it is important that we not miss any signs: that we be here for each service to be guided by the church on this spiritual journey.
