On Fasting

Learn all about the SAINTS. What and who they are, and why WE should be one!

Learn all about the Gospels and the four evangelists--from who the writers were, to what they were writing about, to how we use those writings today!

Learn all about prayer--from how we pray--to why and when we pray! O, Lord, Save Your people, and have mercy on us! Amen.

Learn all about the Holy Cross--from how to do it--to why it’s such an important symbol for Christians. O, Lord, Save Your people! Parents, teachers, catechists! Use these whimsically illustrated, iconography-based videos to introduce various aspects of the Orthodox Christian Faith. Then follow up with hands-on activities specifically designed for the Orthodox Church School classroom and home--available at orthodoxpebbles.com.

If you think about it, fasting is a gift--and a great blessing! It gives us a chance to become stronger Christians, and to show our Lord how much we love Him. May our fast always be fruitful!
