SUMMARY:Praying in Time - A Talk with Sister Vassa Larin
DESCRIPTION:This talk followed by refreshments is sponsored by the Creticos Memorial Lecture.\nBook purchase and signing available afterwards.\n\nIn today’s world\, we often hear how we have lost a sense of purpose and meaning. Time itself has been stripped of anything but its mechanical meaning. In this talk\, Sister Vassa suggests how we can redeem time\, our hours and days\, guided by the liturgical prayer life of the Orthodox tradition. By developing the practice of praying every weekday according to the hours of the day\, we can fill every hour and every day with faith based on meaning and purpose.
