Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church of Rochester Livestream Schedule for Mar. 4th – Mar. 10th 2024

Following on from our “Who or What is God?” lesson, Father Maggos discusses one of the most confusing aspects of Christianity – the Holy Trinity. How are the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit one and the same? How can we consider ourselves a monotheistic faith with three persons as one...

Father Maggos concludes (for now!) his look at Christian Vestments and answers the big question: are liturgical vestments necessary in Orthodoxy? Would nice suits suffice? Also, keep a lookout on our channel in the future as we’ll be presenting a few additional videos to answer popular questions on the series!

Father Maggos takes a tour of the Holy Trinity Monastery in Smiths Creek, Michigan and and talks about why some Greek Orthodox monasteries have an atypical look and architecture. Join us on the road with the Tartan Priest! Father Maggos travels around the world sharing inspirational messages and unique locations!

Welcome to Orthodox Virtual Sunday School, hosted by Father Maggos. We kick off our lessons with some of the biggest questions of all: Who is God? What is God? Where is God and why can’t we see Him?

Father Maggos talks about the Orthodox Kalimavkion (or Kalimafi). Is it a traditional part of Orthodox dress or is it a more recent addition? Why do some Orthodox priests (particularly in parts of North America) not wear them?

This week, Father Maggos continues his exploration of Orthodox Vestments with the Episthios Stavros, or Pectoral Cross. Is it a regular crucifix or does it have special meaning and/or distinction? Does a priest have to earn the right to wear it?
