Announcements for the Month of August!

 

The Dormition Fast begins on August 1st and ends on August 14th. The fast is similiar in practice to the Fast of Great Lent. Additionally, each evening during the Fast a special Service (Paraclesis) will be celebrated in honor of the Most Holy Theotokos. The Blessing of Flowers and Herbs will take place at the conclusion of Divine Liturgy on Sunday, August 15.

 

"Neither the tomb, nor death, could hold the Theotokos,
Who is constant in prayer and our firm hope in her intercessions.
For being the Mother of Life,
She was translated to life by the One who dwelt in her virginal womb!"
