Establish the third leg of the (Great Lent) Fast

 

As the Great Fast begin and the Faithful begin their journeys to Pascha the St. Barnabas Orthodox Mission offer the opportunity to establish the third leg of the Fast.There are three leg of any Holy and Honorable Fasting.

1. Abstaining from rich and abundantly portioned foods such as meat, dairy and oil. it also includes restricting intake to simple and meager portion of vegetables, beans and fruit.
2. Prayer. Redeeming the time use in preparing sumptuous fare to expand our person prayer rule using prayer such are the Prayer of Saint Ephraim (Lord and Master of my life). We should also consider more frequently attending services, gathering together in corporate prayer and communion.
3. Alms giving. The money freed up from vain entertainment and expensive foods is apportioned and distributed to the poor. Even impoverishing ourselves as the widows to give clothing food or even water to Christ. Remember! He(Jesus)  is present in the poor.

St. Barnabas Orthodox Mission offer its service to the Church by distributing the alms entrusted to it during the fasts. we are dedicated to give material and financial assistance to orphans, widows, and other poor especially the vulnerable children in the society. The St Barnabas Orthodox Mission visits orphans and other vulnerable children to bring care packages to the children. we also take food and other needed items to the houses where they stay with their guardians given by God for their care.
Alms maybe sent to St Barnabas Orthodox Mission in several ways.
