Word of Wisdom
St. Macarius the Great

The soul that really loves God and Christ, though it may do ten thousand righteousnesses, esteems itself as having wrought nothing, by reason of its insatiable aspiration after God. Though it should exhaust the body with fastings, with watchings, its attitude towards the virtues is as if it had not yet even begun to labor for them.

PostHeaderIcon THE FIVE COLLEGE ORTHODOX FELLOWSHIP

As the academic as well as the Church year begins, we would like to welcome all Orthodox Christians to support our activities. The Five College Orthodox Fellowship is a group of students, faculty and staff from the five colleges in the Pioneer Valley (Smith, Mount Holyoke, Amherst and Hampshire colleges, and University of Massachusetts). We are Pan-Orthodox, and sponsor a variety of activities related to enriching the faith and life of Orthodox in the five colleges, and extending knowledge of our faith.

Do you know of a student, or someone else, at the colleges who might be interested in our activities?  Would you like to find out more about our ministry?  Please contact either Nicholas Groves (773-682-5545) or Helena Lake (413-549-5726).
