Present in Church
Presanctified Liturgy Sermon

- Fr. Micah Hirschy -


This is a difficult and uncertain time in world history as we combat COVID - 19. Father Micah shares a message of hope and inspiration in the midst of regulations that limits the number of parishioners able to attend services at one time. He reminds us that even though our Cathedral tonight had a limited number of parishioners the Church  is never empty. Orthodox Christians can be present in church with our hearts and minds no matter where we find ourselves.
