• Starting this month, Reader James (Rusty) will be hosting an Orthodoxy 101 class on Thursdays from 6-7pm in the community hall at the parish.

Our Orthodoxy 101 class is intended to help establish and strengthen the spiritual foundations of our faith. All are welcome to join, whether you are an inquirer, catechumen, or laymen. As we work through Fr Thomas Hopko's 4-volume set, The Orthodox Faith, we will discuss the basic tenets and principles as timelessly taught by the Church throughout it's history.

O Lord our God, who dwells in the heavens, and looks down upon all thy works, look down upon thy servants, the catechumens, who have bowed their necks before thee, and grant them a light yoke. Make them honorable members of thy holy Church and vouchsafe unto them the laver of regeneration, the forgiveness of sins and the robe of incorruption, unto the knowledge of thee, our true God.

 

O Lord Jesus Christ, enkindle the hearts of all Thy priests with the fire of zealous love for Thee, that they may labor unceasingly in Thine earthly vineyard for the salvation of our souls and the glory of Thine All-Honorable and Majestic Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
