Day 5 – June 2016

Yesterday, we had our second day of theology and scripture classes which have sparked thoughtful and insightful questions and comments from the participants! Following the lectures, the CrossRoaders had a chance to visit the HCHC bookstore and then participated in an interactive staff-led session on the topic of Faith & Science.

Last evening we ventured into Boston to visit Holy Resurrection Bulgarian Orthodox Church where we celebrated vespers and enjoyed a meal. This was followed by a very special staff-led session in the Holy Cross Chapel titled, “Night with the Saints.” In this session, the participants were divided into small groups to “meet” different Saints, venerate icons and relics in the Holy Cross Chapel, and learn what sainthood means. The takeaway of the evening was that every person has the opportunity and calling to be a Saint.
