March Book Discussion Group: Soul Mending


Orthodox Book Discussion Group will hold a Special Lecture Series after Liturgies of Presantified Gifts during Lent: Soul Mending:The Art of Spiritual Direction. Join Father Christos and Father Deacon Perikles for a discussion of Soul Mending, written by Fr. John Chryssavgis. Different chapters of Soul Mending will be discussed after a pot luck dinner following each of the Liturgies of Presantified Gifts at 6:00 P.M. on Wednesdays during Lent. Soul Mending examines themes of spiritual direction and pastoral care, and the role of the spiritual director. It includes a foreword by Bishop Kallistos Ware. This is a very timely book because it deals with major themes of Great Lent, repentance and confession. Fr. John Chryssavgis is Professor of Theology at Hellenic College/Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, Brookline, Massachusetts.
The dates for the Liturgies of the Presanctified Gifts and Book Discussion are: March 9, March 16 , April 6, and April 13th.
