ARE YOU ON A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY?
The church family at Holy Nativity is made up of people from various religious and Christian backgrounds. One thing we share in common is our spiritual journey. At some point in our lives, we decided it was time to explore Christianity or engage the Christian faith in deeper way. Through prayer, study of the Holy Scriptures, the writings of the ancient Church, and seeking the counself of others, we found our way to Orthodoxy. To be honest, this tranistion can be difficult. You discover that following Christ is truly a sacrficial way of life, the way of the Cross. While the cost is great, the reward is greater. If you are on a spiritual journey, we would like to help. Fr Jason (318-455-4219) is available to visit with you as well as others in the congregation. Our website and the resources connected to it may offer some assistance. Please pray about joining us for a service. We would love to have you visit Holy Nativity. May God bless and guide your steps!
