 Great Lent Projects :
We are going to enter in to the Great lent. Great lent is a very good period for us to grow spiritually. Prayer, Bible reading, self-examination, confession, receiving of the Holy Eucharist, and alms giving are the main aspects of spiritual growth. The church arranges the Bible reading calendar and schedules the canonical prayers in such a way to help us in this spiritual growth.

Click here for some concrete suggestions about what to do during this lent.

There are seven Sundays in the great lent before Easter Sunday. Each Sunday, except Palm Sunday, through the gospel reading we hear one of the miracles of our Lord. The aim of this project is to make you familiar with those passages and their parallel passages and understand the significance of that miracle and try to apply it in your spiritual life.

This project is for the junior and senior students of our church. This project is given in seven sections – one section per week. The due date for the project will be the following Sunday.

** Please submit the project before the due date.
