This year, the Great Feast of Pentecost, when the Church celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit, also coincided with Father's Day. After the Festal Liturgy and Vespers with kneeling prayers, we sang "Many Years!" to all fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, and uncles. Sunday School bought presents for all the men of our parish - barbecue sauce! (This will be one of the greatest grilling seasons ever.) Also, Maryann celebrated her birthday and two of our Sunday School students, who missed end of school year celebration last week, received their presents. Glory to God for all things! Blessed and joyful Pentecost season to all!     Christ is risen! On Sunday, May 12, we celebrated the Feast of Holy Myrrh-bearing Women, Mother's Day, and birthdays of Nadezhda and Slavica. Sunday School children made a wonderful present for all the ladies of the parish - begonia plants! Father Aleksey spoke with children about the courage, faith, and love of the holy myrrh-bearers and how our mothers share the same qualities. At the end of the Liturgy we took a group photo of our women. In short, we had another wonderfully busy day here. Glory to God for all things!          |
