Jan 23, 2023
As was mentioned at our annual meeting, we are re-starting to have some weekday services for our Great Feast Days. Since many people live far from Church and given work and school schedules, we thought we would have potluck suppers to make life easier for everyone.
Please plan to attend our first upcoming feast with Great Vespers and a potluck supper.
Wednesday is a fasting day (no meat products), but fish and dairy are fine.

Called to Care----Feeding Our Neighbors
Jan 23, 2023
Bringing canned goods to our Loaves and Fishes bins is one small but very important way to care for our needy neighbors.
There are many people who will go to bed hungry tonight.
Next time you go shopping buy a few extra cans or boxed items for our food ministry.
