Inspiring and Equipping our Parishes
to Reclaim the Great Commission
The Great Commission calls us to focus our parish ministries on renewing the faith of our members in order to share our faith with inquirers and the unchurched. We do this through our actions as well as our words. This interactive ministry panel of priests, leaders and educators will share proven practical methods, successful ministries, information and resources to inspire and equip parish leaders to obey the command of Christ to “make disciples of all nations” (Matt 28:16-20).
Panelists:
Fr. Evan Armatas
Fr. Mark Leondis
Dr. Eve Tibbs
Fr Luke Veronis
Moderator:
Fr. Jim Kordaris
NOTE: As this was the first ministry panel of the congress, there were a few glitches. The introduction of Dr Eve Tibbs was not included. Eve spoke of her class of graduate students at Fuller Theological who were given an assignment to visit a local Greek Orthodox Church and report on their experiences. These first impressions of our parishes by advanced theological school students provide us with an inspiration to consider the way we welcome those who seek the Orthodox Christian Faith.
