The U of T Orthodox Christian Fellowship invites you to a discussion with His Eminence SERAPHIM (Storheim), Archbishop of Ottawa and Canada in the Orthodox Church in America. He will speak about religious faith in the modern, secular university, and the importance of humility and integrity in witnessing the Faith to a skeptical world. His Eminence is a convert to Orthodoxy from Anglicanism; co-chairs the Orthodox and Roman Catholic standing Bishops’ Dialogue in North America; has served at New Valaam Monastery in Finland; is a sometime musician; and is known abroad as “the Canadian Orthodox bishop who smiles.”
“For everyone, the love of God is caught, not taught, although some teaching helps to inform, direct and refine it. This love is the all-encompassing characteristic of our relationship with Christ, just as it is that which develops our distinctive personalities and personal characteristics.”—Abp. Seraphim Storheim
