How do we continue our walk in faith and keep the joy of the Lord during times of challenge in our lives?
This is a question we all struggle with from time to time. Come join us on April 4th as we travel to distant lands and meet missionaries whose lives are an example of how they continue to trust in the Lord’s strength with faith, hope, joy and love. Whether we are undergoing illness, economic hardship, occupational burnout or other difficulties, these modern, living saints can inspire us to trust in the Lord and participate with joy in the life He has prepared for us.
We invite you to join your Orthodox brethren from all jurisdictions in this day of fellowship and spiritual strengthening as we seek to walk ever-closer with the Lord.
