This Lent on our blog we are highlighting the voices of our clergy! Each author of this year’s “40 Days with FOCUS” blog series have first-hand experience praying, giving, and serving with FOCUS.
We are so thankful to be a part of the greater Orthodox Christian community, and cant wait to share a part of this community with you!
A handful of clergy members who have been involved with FOCUS over the years are sharing their thoughts on the following question:
How does prayer, fasting, and alms-giving during Lent relate to our calling to serve the “least of these?”
Check our blog every Friday for their reflections!
