Public Lecture

On Saturday, 30^th August, the Very Rev’d Father Anastasios Bozikis, Lecturer in Church History, delivered the keynote address at a Day Retreat on ‘Diakonia (Service)’ organised by the Parish of Sts Raphael, Nicholas and Irene, Liverpool, at the picturesque venue of Panorama House near Wollongong. The talk entitled, ‘One Body, Many Members: Ministry and Service in the Early Church’ introduced the participants to the vision of Christian ministry in the wider community as enunciated in the Scriptures and the writings of the early Church Fathers. These reflections served to inform further discussion at a plenary and group level on the future direction of the parish and its various ministries.
