NEW ZOOM CLASS BEGINS SEPT 23

"I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come." (Nicene Creed)

Zoom Class on the Resurrection of the Dead

Three Sessions,

Beginning Wednesday, September 23 at 7:00 p.m. 

Dear Parish Faithful,

At every Liturgy we recite the Nicene Creed together, and towards the end we confess: "I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life in the world to come." What do we actually mean here by "the resurrection of the dead?' What are we committing ourselves to believe in with this credal affirmation? In our zoom class, we will take a detailed look at I Corinthians 15, possibly the most important text about the resurrection of the dead in the entire New Testament. How does I Cor. 15 support and elaborate what we hear of Christ's resurrection in the Gospels? Essential teaching of our Orthodox Christian Faith.

This will probably be a three-week session. If time permits, I would also like to examine II Cor. 5, an often neglected chapter that complements and extends some of the Apostle Paul's teaching in I Cor. 15. Please join us!

If you feel somewhat disconnected from the parish after months of absence; if you are not yet ready to sign up to attend the services; or if you are not joining us on zoom or facebook for these same services, here is a good opportunity to re-connect. In addition to learning about the Faith, we are "kind of" together on zoom, seeing each other and hearing each other's voices. There is a communal dimension to our classes that is very important at a time when we remain restricted from personal contact. I am going to guarantee that you will learn a good deal; and I feel safe to guarantee that you will enjoy the virtual fellowship that our zoom classes offer. Please give it some thought and make the commitment!
