Welcome to Our Visitors
We welcome you to worship with us. Whether you are an Orthodox Christian or this is your first visit to an Orthodox Church, we are pleased to have you with us. Although Holy Communion and other Sacraments are offered only to baptized and chrismated (confirmed) Orthodox Christians, all are invited to receive the antidoron (blessed bread) from the priest at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy. The antidoron is not sacramental, but is reminiscent of the agape feast that followed worship in the ancient Christian Church. Please stop by the Guest Book Table for more information and to let us know you are visiting. After the Divine Liturgy this morning, please join us in the social hall for fellowship and refreshments.
Church Security
The Parish Councl is creating a plan in response to the Assembly's concerns about saftey and security. The first step is changing the locks, and re-issuing new keys. This will take place towards the end of this week. If you require a key you first must return your current one.
Mom's Night Out - Feb. 18
Being a mom can be hard and some days it can feel overwhelming. Our group gives us a time to get together, laugh and talk (no topic is off-limits!) with other moms in our church community. We are hoping this is a place where you can find support and friendship and draw closer to Christ and one another. It is open to all moms at St. John's raising children ages 0-18 and to any friends outside of our parish community you think could benefit from a MNO and great fellowship. Our first gathering is on Feb. 18 at 6:30, at Bluegrass Kitchen. See Meghan Kellner for more details!
