Beloved,
Christ is risen! Truly He is risen! El Messieh Qam! Hakkan Qam!
After a past week that filled our hearts we have two more very important events this coming week:
First, on Tuesday evening at 6pm we will begin to celebrate our patronal feast of St George with Vespers with Litia and Artoklasia (blessed sweet bread). This service will be followed by Orthros and Divine Liturgy on Wednesday morning starting at 8am. Make an effort to come to one of these 3 services to celebrate our feast day.
Next, on Friday we will have our Parish Hafli at Franklin Terrance Ballroom in Troy at 7pm. This event will serve as a celebration of Holy Pascha and our Patronal Feast and a fundraiser for the parish. Thank you to all those who have helped coordinate!
Watch this well-done video on our patron saint. By the intercessions of your Great-Martyr George, Lord have mercy on us and save us.
with love in Christ,
Fr John
