“Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him” (Jeremiah 17:7).
Dear Angels, Members, Supporters and Friends of the Orthodox Catholic Monastery of Our Lady Joy of All Who Sorrow,
During this time of Advent, a season of hope in preparation for the birth of our Savior, we are offered an opportunity to recommit our lives to faith and trust in God. In contrast, insecurity and fear are epidemic in society; and, there are certainly many rational causes for societal and personal insecurity. As believers, however, we have this assurance:
“And those who know Your name put their trust in You, for You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You” (Psalm 9:10).
The Orthodox Catholic Monastery of Our Lady Joy of All Who Sorrow (OCMOLJAWS) strives in this time of insecurity to be an oasis of faith and trust in God’s providence by observance of its mission of contemplative prayer and by sharing spiritual inspiration and education via its website and blog:
As the calendar year is ending, we want to take this opportunity to thank each of you who has contributed in any way to make this humble ministry possible and to humbly ask for your continued support and contributions. Year-end also means tax season is here again. Please consider making a gift to help foster the development of a contemporary monastic spirituality responsive to today’s society. Your financial support is greatly needed and appreciated!
