Show Notes

Hello and welcome to another episode. We’re so glad you could join us as we continue our series on the life of the Virgin Mary. Today, we’re talking about the Annunciation of the Theotokos, a truly meaningful moment in her story. Joining us is Father Phillip Saba from Saint Nicholas Church in Punchbowl, who will guide us through this special topic. And as always, we’ll listen to a passage from the Philokalia!

With beautiful reflections, chanting, and introductions to the priests and faithful of the Archdiocese each week, we hope you are educated, empowered, and enriched by the Light of Christ through this podcast.

As always, if you have any questions about Orthodoxy or would like to submit a question for the podcast, please email us at [email protected]
