For these reasons, all of our young people will prepare speeches, poems, essays or iconography this year, whether or not they ultimately choose to participate. In this way, we further one of the primary missions of the Festival, which is to help our children learn more about their faith. Therefore, we ask you as parents, to please support the efforts of the church and your child by encouraging them to participate in this year s St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Festival. Enthusiasm is contagious!! Please do your part to spread it throughout our parish and especially to our young people.

Discuss how a Christian can remain aware of the Presence of God in his or her life. 2. I grieve and am pained that all people do not know Paul as much as they ought to know him, writes St. John Chrysostom in his commentary on the epistle to the Romans. Discuss aspects of the life and ministry of St. Paul that show the importance and the need for the people of today to know St. Paul. 3. The ancient Greek word, agon or agonas was used to describe athletic activities. It was also employed by early Christians to describe the way a Christian should live. How does the effort to live a Christian life resemble an athletic activity? 4.

What is the proper relationship between the images one sees that the lifestyle one leads? 5.

Discuss how reading the Bible regularly can benefit a Christian today. 2. Do you know that you are God s temple and that God s Spirit dwells in you? If any one destroys God s temple, God will destroy him. For God s temple is holy and that temple you are: (1 Corinthians 3:16). How do you translate these words of St. Paul into a lifestyle in view of society s obsession with totally different lifestyles? 3.
