This year, 2021, marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann (+1983), former dean and professor at St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary, renowned theologian, and prolific writer and speaker.

As we begin our year of honoring his life and profound contributions to the Church, we are so pleased to share his voice with you. His words, captured decades ago—on a recording which recently came into our possession—are anything but dated. They are further proof that Fr. Alexander remains a voice for our time.
