Beloved Christians,
The Saint John of Damascus Orthodox Educational Initiative serves families in North America, England and Eastern Europe.
This video appeal directed towards the Christians throughout these regions and is over an hour long. The video begins with a very brief introduction by the Headmaster, followed by a sermon by me concerning the challenges that Modernism and Humanism bring to bear against Christians. The sermon features the teachings of Archbishop Andrew of Rockland on the “The Resoration Of The Orthodox Way Of Life.” This is followed by information about the Saint John’s Initiative and the Appeal for the upcoming school year.
Please share the link above with parents who you think will be helped by this information.
Thank you.
In Christ,
+Moses, of Toronto

At it, they will most certainly have to deal with a conflict with the Patriarchate of Moscow concerning primacy, but also they will proclaim the heresy of Ecumenism with an alleged synodal decision of Ecumenical (or rather Ecumenistic) force.

Q. Can you please explain the significance of the forty day memorial service? An Evangelical family asked one of our relatives that question. We said that it’s best to ask a clergy member. Thank you in advance for your response. (We will forward it to them as soon as possible).
