Bishop Michael has issued an Archpastoral Letter to the faithful of the diocese for the beginning of Great Lent on 3 March 2014. In part, he writes: “As we begin the Lenten journey of the Great Fast this year, I am mindful of a question often asked of us by non-Orthodox - ‘Why do you fast in Lent?’ - and a question often asked by our own fellow Orthodox Christians - ‘Why do we have to fast during Great Lent?’” In addition to his letter, His Grace has offered two valuable teaching videos on “Great Lent” and “Fasting” that are available as part of the “Lessons in Our Faith” series.
