Tonight we will begin our meeting with an Akathist to St. Xenia of St. Petersburg, holy fool-for-Christ. St. Xenia is known to fervently intercede for those who ask for her prayers, and once in one’s life she never departs. More can be read of her here and also here. The service will conclude with an anointing with holy oil taken from her shrine in Smolensk Cemetery, St. Petersburg, Russia courtesy of Porphyrios.

We will have a small assortment of fasting-friendly snacks available as we discuss our faith and share our experiences. Time permitting, we may also watch The Prince of Egypt (1997 DreamWorks).

In other news, our fliers are in! These will be distributed as needed at tonight’s meeting. Please have them displayed on your campus by next week!
