Reflections on 18th AAC theme to appear weekly
The theme of the 18th All-American Council—“How to Expand the Mission”—will be explored in a new series of reflections slated to be posted on the 18th All-American Council web site every Thursday.
The 18th All-American Council will be convened July 20-24, 2015 in Atlanta, GA.
In the series’ first installment, Protopresbyter Daniel Hubiak, retired Chancellor of the Orthodox Church in America and first OCA Representative to the Moscow Patriarchate, reflects on the words and wisdom of Saint Tikhon shared at the First All-American Sobor, held in Mayfield, PA in 1907. He shares Saint Tikhon’s three-point approach to “expanding the Mission” by thanking God daily for the gift of Orthodoxy, strengthening each other in the Faith and the love of Orthodoxy, and propagating the Faith by living it.
Future reflections will be offered by Archpriests Robert Arida, John Dunlop, Lawrence Farley, and Daniel Rentel; Priest David Rucker; Dr. Paul Meyendorff; and numerous others.
