The Glory of God is Man Fully Alive – Monthly Online Talk Series
Dear Parishioners of OLOP:
Bishop Gregory has invited all parishioners to join in on this talk sponsored by the Office of Family and Sanctity of Life. I hope many of you can join in on this gathering. All the information is set forth below. Thank you and God bless you.
Fr. Vincent
Dear Brother Priests, Deacons and Subdeacons, Religious Men and Women, Lay Faithful:
The Office of Family and Sanctity of Life for The Eparchy of Saint Maron is launching this Tuesday January 12, 2021 at 7 pm a monthly series of online talks based on Saint Irenaeus’ quote “The Glory of God is man fully alive.”
God became man to elevate our humanity and give us the dignity to be sons and daughters of God. This series of talks will help us appropriate what is already ours and show us how to live in Christ. When we embrace our vocation as God’s children, fully alive in Christ, we can work faithfully to uphold the dignity and sanctity of every human life from the moment of conception to natural death.
I will offer an opening prayer this Tuesday at 7pm, then Father Hopkins LC, will begin the series. Q & A to follow. Please encourage your parishioners to join us.
For more information, you can click here or check the Fully Alive Series Flyer. Please promote this on social media.

Vince and his family during this time, and pray that they will find consolation in the love they share with each other, and in the loving memories they have of Nan.
