“Do you wish to honor the body of Christ? Then do not disdain him when you see him in rags. After having honored Him in the church with silken vestments, do not leave Him to die of cold outside for lack of clothing. For it is the same Jesus who says ‘this is my body’ and who says, ‘I was hungry and you did not feed me.”
St. John Chrysostom
Top 5 Ways to: “Live the Liturgy After the Liturgy”
PRAYER
Christ is Risen! We are more inclined to Love God and our neighbor if we pray regularly. Read more about Bright Week Prayers here.
ALMSGIVING
We spend so much money on frivolous things. Let us take time to be purposeful with the resources we have. Donate to an organization with a mission you connect to, or Join our YES Sowers Program!
SERVICE
Research one organization in your community that you can regularly give your time to.
KINDNESS
Make it a weekly habit to plan and participate in one act of kindness each week.
OBEDIENCE
Carefully consider what God is asking of you, the needs of your family and friends, and your own as well. Practice being attentive and obedient to where there is a need, and fill it as best you can.
