Dear Friend, Glory to our Jesus Christ!
Here is yet another reason to learn, LIVE and Share The Faith:
‘No matter how long it lives, the Greatest Lion will eventually die miserably. That’s the world.
At their peak, they rule, chase other animals, catch, devour, gulp, and leave their crumbs for hyenas. But age comes fast.
The old Lion can’t hunt, can’t kill or defend itself. It roams and roars until it runs out of luck. It will be cornered by the hyenas, nibbled at and eaten alive by them. They won’t even let it die before it is dismembered.
Life is short. Power is ephemeral. Physical beauty is short-lived, I have seen it in lions. I have seen it in old people. Everyone who lives long enough will become weak and very vulnerable at some point.
Therefore, let us be humble. Help the sick, the weak, the vulnerable, and most importantly, never forget that we will leave the stage one day.’

Are you concerned with helping people prepare for eternity per our Lord? A good start is providing them with the presence (Mt 25:31-46, Luke 10:25-37) of a caring Orthodox mission priest by supporting Share The Faith Ministries.
To learn more of how you can Help Us Transfigure America, here are three very helpful links to learn from and share with others:

We are all a work in progress. But we can each take small steps to prepare for eternity. Caring that our fellow man is able to enjoy our Savior’s Heaven on Earth, the Holy Liturgy, and learn the way of His Saints is one of the most important. Glory to our Jesus Christ!
