A Holy Friday Retreat: A Parish Handbook for Planning and Conducting a Lenten Retreat

A Lenten Resource for Youth Programs!

The National Forum of Greek Orthodox Church Musicians is pleased to announce the availability of a newly revised, 2010 edition of its popular publication,

"A Holy Friday Retreat: A Parish Handbook for Planning and Conducting a Lenten Retreat."

The Handbook is a valuable resource for helping young people learn through Orthodox theology, hymnology, and iconography.

As in the first edition, the 2010 Handbook provides ready-to-use information, materials, icons, and Orthodox hymns for putting on such a retreat. However, this 2010 edition also adds many variations and alternative ideas to the theme, plus more music, especially useful when parishes conduct their Retreat in subsequent years. These variations and new ideas have been requested by the many parishes across our Archdiocese who have instituted a Holy Friday Retreat as an ongoing feature of their Lenten programming.
