Great Lent Confessions – Everyone, whether you confess regularly or only once per year, will need to make a confession during the Lenten season. I am giving a time window from Sunday of Zacchaeus to Friday April 3rd. Please avail yourself to this huge window to make a confession as part of our season of repentance.

A big thank you to everyone who showed up on Saturday to help clean and beautify our church and property. We are looking to make some improvements in terms of safety on the back part of our property for our processions during Holy Friday, Palm Sunday and Pascha.

Baptisms and Chrismations this year will take place April 4th (Lazarus Saturday) – ½ of our baptisms. April 5th (Palm Sunday during Divine Liturgy, all Chrismations), and April 11th (Holy Saturday) at 10am the other ½ of our Baptisms. Exciting time for our catechumens and indeed our entire community.

 Next Sunday is the Veneration of the Precious Cross – the third of Lent! When we sing “Before Thy Cross…” just prior to the reading of the Epistle we should not prostrate – at least where the reader of the epistle needs to stand.

On the Calendar

Wednesday April 1st at 1:00pm at the Church Hall – Kathy Anderson will lead a group putting together the Palm Sunday Bouquets. All are welcome to participate. We will need to make many more than we have in the past – thanks to the Holy Spirit!
