- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine at the World Trade Center will host a special Lenten Lecture Series event dedicated to “The Prayer of St. Ephrem” on Wednesday, March 11, combining worship, fellowship, and theological discussion.
The evening will be led by Fr. Andreas Vithoulkas, Protopresbyter of the Ecumenical Throne and Archiepiscopal Vicar of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine.
The program will begin at 1:00 PM with the Presanctified Divine Liturgy, followed by a Lenten meal at 2:30 PM on the shrine’s third floor. At 3:00 PM, Fr. Vithoulkas will deliver the Lenten lecture and lead a discussion focusing on the spiritual significance of the Prayer of St. Ephrem, one of the most central prayers of the Great Lent in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America tradition.
Organizers say the event aims to offer participants an opportunity for reflection, learning, and spiritual preparation during the Lenten period.
Those who wish to attend the lecture remotely can register online to receive a Zoom link for the discussion.
