Let us spiritually make every effort to attend the many services that the Holy Orthodox Church offers us during Holy Great Lent, plan your day to attend along with your beloved children.

Let us fervently consider to go to Holy Confession, and to say the necessary prayers before Holy Communion, and to give thanks to our God for this cleansing of our souls and bodies. Above all let us remember this is a period of fasting, learn about how you should fast as what you could eat, and not to eat during the whole spiritual period of Holy Great Lent, not just the first week of Lent, and the last week, let us now begin to fast throughout Lent, if we have not started yet!

Let us all walk with Christ Our Lord to Golgotha, and let us behold indeed His Glorious Holy Resurrection, also known as the Holy and Great Pascha for us all!

May Christ Our Lord truly strengthen us all with His great love during Holy Great Lent, and to behold Him day by day, and thus be greatly rewarded spiritually.

A blessed spiritually rewarding Holy Great Lent, and it can be truly Holy -humbly by our loving efforts!

Humbly In Christ Our Lord,
