Dear all,
We would like to kindly remind you of our upcoming COTY Lenten Retreat in two weeks’ time, on Saturday, 13 April 2024, at St. Mary’s Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Camberwell. This retreat is a wonderful opportunity for all young people aged 16-35 to deepen their faith, learn about Orthodoxy, and connect with like-minded individuals.
We're excited to have His Eminence Archbishop Nikitas as our main speaker, followed by the Very Revd Archimandrite Peter, Abbot of the Holy Stavropegic Monastery of St John the Baptist, as well as the Revd Œconomos Kristian Akselberg.
We have also added 2 liturgical tradition workshops to the program, with a ‘craft your own prayer rope’ session, and a presentation on the history of illustrated manuscripts in the British Isles.
The day will start with a celebration of the Divine Liturgy in English at 9:30 am, followed by breakfast, insightful talks, and lunch—all provided courtesy of a COTY subsidy.
We believe this event is a fantastic way for our youth to engage with their faith during Lent, and we still have spaces available for attendees.
