Church Etiquette
We ask that the doors of the Narthex be closed and no one enters the Church during the following portions of the service:
Epistle, Gospel, Sermon, Great Entrance, Creed, Consecration, and Lord's Prayer.
Please be respectful of the prayer and attention of those who are in the Church as you enter.
When it is time for Holy Communion, please remain in your pews until the young people of the Sunday school have finished receiving Communion. When they are finished, the Parish Council will usher you forward by row.
We extend our congratulations to Fr. Anthony & Presvytera Elisabeth on the birth of their daughter, Emma Lucia, who was born this past Tuesday, July 17. All are doing well!
Today we welcome Fr. Karamanos as the celebrant of the Divine Liturgy while Fr. Anthony is away.
The Church's office hours are limited this week due to the birth of Fr. Anthony's daughter and Susan on vacation. If there is an urgent need, please contact Fr. Anthony on his cell directly.
Sponsor Needed
Our annual Greek Festival will occur on Sunday, September 16, 2018! As in years past, we will again hold a raffle. We are seeking a donor to sponsor the raffle tickets this year (suggested donation: $500.00). If you are interested, please call the Church office and talk to Susan. Thank you.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
We need coffee servers during the coffee hour on Sundays. If we do not have volunteers, we will not be able to have a coffee hour. Please consider serving our Lord in this capacity by signing up outside the church office. Thank you!
The Rule of Faith - Orthodox Study
Fr. Anthony prepares a weekly presentation on a catechetical topic, and posts an audio recording at theruleoffaith.typepad.com. You can comment there, call, email, or speak with him in person with comments or questions.
