praise the Lord!" The theme will be explored by speakers and through
activities from four perspectives: Praising God through personal
prayer, through liturgical prayer, through how we live with and treat
each other, and through caring for God's world and the environment.
The

getting to know one another session on Sunday evening, December 27. It
will conclude after the Divine Liturgy and breakfast that Wednesday
morning by 11:00 AM. The full schedule of speakers and activities will

well.
Geared for children and young people ages 7-17, the $75
