“Housekeeping notes” 1) There is a lot of unused toilet paper being put into the restroom trashcans. Parents, please monitor your children to prevent waste; 2) Candles for use in front of the iconostasis – I have seen several children taking candles, which is a holy act, but not put any money into the candle money slot. Please everyone; ensure you contribute the $1 to cover the costs.

Parish Greetings Ministry: We are establishing a ministry to greet visitors before Divine Liturgy and to assist first-time visitors. Everyone will receive training and two will serve each Sunday. With at least 10 volunteers you would only have to serve every fifth Sunday. Please give Fr. Brian your names and help to serve Our Lord in this most important area of welcome and evangelization.
