: Invitation to start of Young Adult Lecture Series

As part of an Australia-wide Diocesan initiative to meet the needs of the youth of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, an invitation is extended to all youth and young adults to attend an informal lecture (in English) to be given by His Grace Archbishop Hilarion at Holy Protection Church, Cabramatta on at 7.30pm on Thursday 1 March 2007.

Because we have just entered the Lenten season and embarked on the Great Fast, Archbishop Hilarion will speak on the mystery of Confession, its meaning in the life of the Christian, the role of repentance and the experience of forgiveness.

An integral part of the evening will be the opportunity to ask questions of the Archbishop and assisting clergy.

This meeting is intended to be the first of regular gatherings to be held at various locations in Sydney.

All youth and young adults are encouraged to attend, and members of other Orthodox jurisdictions are welcome to attend and participate.

Please forward this invitation to any one whom you think may be interested in attending.
