Sunday of the Holy Fathers of the 4th Ecumenical Council

On the Sunday that falls from the 13th to the 19th of the present month, we chant the Service to the 630 Holy and God-bearing Fathers who came together for the 4th Ecumenical Council who assembled in Chalcedon in 451, to condemn Eutyches, who taught that there was only one nature, the divine, in Christ after the Incarnation, and Dioscorus, Patriarch of Alexandria, who illegally received Eutyches back into communion and deposed Saint Flavian, Patriarch of Constantinople, who had excommunicated Eutyches.

In the Slavic tradition, on this Sunday, the Fathers of the first six Ecumenical Councils are all commemorated.

BACKPACK DRIVE - Summer may be on its way but it is the perfect time to help with the Philoptochos Back Pack Project. Last year with your help we were able to donate 116 filled back packs to Long Beach children. Our request for donations has been sent in the mail and you should be receiving it soon. Due to COVID-19 and to ensure the safety of the children, this year we will only be requesting monetary donations towards backpacks and supplies. A $35 donation will help fill a backpack. Checks can be sent to Assumption Philoptochos, 5761 E Colorado Street, Long Beach, CA 90814 or via Venmo @Philoptochos-LongBeach.

 

BAKE SALE - We have sold out the baklava and spanakopites. We only have a few trays of Tiropites left.  Call Lia Kakaris at 562-773-1778 before they go. We don't know when we will be able to bake again. 

A “Big Thank you” from our heart to all of you that supported Philoptochos at this difficult time. We appreciate you very much.
