Orientale Lumen XX: The 20th annual Orientale Lumen Conference will be held at the Washington Retreat House in Washington, DC on June 21-24, 2016. This year the theme is “Creation: Our Shared Inheritance.” Speakers are being invited to discuss the ecumenical dimensions of the Papal Encyclical Laudato Si and the environmental symposia of the Ecumenical Patriarch.
The agenda will begin on Tuesday afternoon and conclude with lunch on Friday. There will be plenary sessions by prominent speakers in the ecumenical dialogue between the Catholic and Orthodox Churches, a variety of liturgical worship services with full congregational participation, and many opportunities for fellowship with other participants and the speakers.

Let us remember in prayer all those who are in some special need of God’s loving kindness and mercy at this time. Let us remember particularly the “Prayer Requests” of all who have asked for the prayerful support of our Parish Family in their special intentions.
