The Pattern of Our Lives
Youth Sermon

- Fr. Micah Hirschy -


On February 2nd in Orthodoxy we celebrate The Presentation of Our Lord. Today is "Youth Sunday" and Father Micah engages the children in a dialogue about this feast, as well as other Orthodox examples that allow us to pattern our lives after Jesus. The Liturgical Year gives us fasts and Feasts which help us to acquire a rhythm and a pattern shared by the entire Church. The Worship of Jesus through the Church helps us to live lives patterned after Him.
