Read MoreThe office is now re-opened with our normal business hours, Tuesday-Friday, 8:30 am - 4:00 pm. If you would like to come light a candle in the nave, please feel free to do so, but call the office first so we can insure that we are staying below 10 people at a time.
For those wishing to attend services, please refer to the Online Sign Up sent out via email. At this time, we are limiting the number of service attendees to 10. As a result we ask all visitors to refrain from coming until after the restrictions are lifted, thereby giving our parishioners the opportunity to commune.

COMMUNITY!!
Community has been the theme word for a number of weeks and now is the time for us to rally together as a community to take care of each other and all of our neighbors during this time!
Read MoreTaking into account the directives of His Eminence, we will be changing our schedule for the next few weeks. For at least the next two weeks, we will be limiting ourselves to the liturgical services, the prayers of which will be vitally important for everyone during this difficult time. This does mean that we will not have coffee hour or our Wednesday meals, Bible study or other teaching opportunities and gatherings. As was announced yesterday, we will have our 10 am cleaning session tomorrow morning. Unfortunately, we will not be hosting Fr.
