On Sunday December 18, two of our eight Catechumans (Tim & Meredith) were Baptized, Christmated, Communed and Tonsured into the Orthodox Church! We celebrate them as a community and the Orthodox world rejoices! God grant them many years of peace, health, salvation and furtherance in all things!

On Sunday November 13, Father Jonathan and Family came to visit their old stomping grounds here at Saint John's. Since Fr Jonathan was transferred in early 2020, in the midst of Covid, our parish was unable to send him off properly. By Gods grace and by the kindness of Father Brian, our parish was able to whip up a potluck luncheon for a few hours of fellowship and delicious food in honor of Father Jonathan and family! 

We are so thankful for everyone who helped make this day of celebration a success. We were blessed by Father Jonathan and we are blessed by Father Brian. May God grant all of us many years!

On Sunday July 17, a classmate of Fr. Brian's, Fr. Herman, from the Antiochian Archdiocese of America, served the Divine Liturgy with us and delivered an excellent homily. We thank him for the spiritual nourishment and wish him well in his travels. Many years, Father!

Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen! Due to Covid-19, Churches were closed for Pascha of 2020. This year more than made up for it! Our choir members sang their hearts out, and the Risen Lord touched all of our hearts. It was joyful; it was radiant; it was Heavenly, Paschal bliss. Glory to God for all things! To hear the magnificent music of Pascha, visit our Facebook page or YouTube page! 

Christ is Risen! It was a small but pious crowd at Saint John's due to Covid-19 restrictions, but that didn't stop us from warmly welcoming our new priest, Father Brian Crivella! Today was his very first Divine Liturgy served with us, and he did a great job! We're looking forward to getting to know him and supporting him in his first parish assignment as a new priest! Christ is Risen!

Great Evening of Fellowship enjoying the Movie The Island (Rus., Ostrov)

We were blessed to host the official launch part for the new novel, “Lights on the Mountain,” by Cheryl Anne Tuggle! Fun was had by all.

The Paschal Service begins with the Midnight Office (and the sharing of the First Light); then the procession follows concluding at the doors of the Church and proceeding with the Paschal Verses and the beginning of Paschal Matins.  During Matins the Catechetical Sermon of St. John Chrysostom is read with everyone standing attentively, and we then serve the Divine Liturgy of Pascha.  Christ is risen!  Indeed He is risen!
