A wonderful lecture was given by Father Jason Vansuch on the life of Saint John of the Ladder. FOCA members, parishioners of St. John's and friends gathered together for Great Vespers, a light supper, and the talk by Father Jason.
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. (1 John 10:10-12)
