Welcome to a new series of 7 Catechetical Talks on the Orthodox understanding of God’s providence throughout the history of salvation.
Our faith is often viewed through the lens of history, but how do the major events of the Old Testament relate to our lives today?
In this series, we will bridge the gap between “Then” (Old Testament) and “Now” (New Testament fulfillment and application) to reveal the seamless continuity of God’s care.
When: Starting Monday, November 10, 2025, at 6:30 PM (7 talks through December 22, 2025)
Where: Christ the Saviour Cathedral, Toronto
