Tragedies in Japan: Our Response? - 03/18/11
Last updated: 2017-06-17 09:43:10

In a letter to the faithful of our diocese regarding the recent tragedies in Japan, Bishop Michael writes: "Our initial response as Orthodox Christians is, of course, prayer to the Lord who loves mankind for our brothers and sisters in Japan, many of whom are Orthodox Christians, and for all those afflicted; for the repose of the souls of those who have departed this life in the wake of this tragedy … and for the health and safety, care and healing of those who have lost their family members, their homes, and their hope. In this season of Great Lent we are especially reminded, however, that prayer is not enough."
