Fasting in the Syriac Orthodox Church Of Antioch
Fasting is abstinence from eating food for a certain time of the day, after which a fasting person eats a light meal.

It will get rid of fattened foods, which dim its eyes and insight and divert all her thoughts toward foods. Drinks, entert... More

Preparing for Lent - Physically & Spiritually
As we approach the Great Lent which is the 3rd Cycle in the Church Calendar, it is known as The Cycle of Forgiveness. It is a time of abstinence, refraining oneself from indulging in things.

Christians are supposed to be the light of the world, but you can't be a light if you're not plugged in.
Our Lord Jesus calls us, His disciples, the light of the world: You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same w... More

Your relationships with the... More

Such a faith void of God's wrath was characterized in the early 1900s by a movement called Protestant Liberalism. In 1937, H. Richard N... More

Dearly Beloved Clergy, Parish Councils, Organizations, and respected Faithful of the Western Archdiocese of USA
The leaf from the old times of 2019 has fallen on the first day of 2020. Instead of a brand-new leaf announcing the new year.
This young leaf will grow with time, get old and fall the same as its preceding when its time comes. It will enter the book of history and will no more be beneficial except for... More
