Dear Brothers and Sisters,
 
       Our area has been experiencing unprecedented and dangerous amounts of rain all day long. This inclement weather is forcing us to postpone our annual picnic once more. However, the good news is that we are only moving it one day over, to Sunday, October 1 after Divine Liturgy, at noon! The forecast for Sunday promises warm weather and clear skies. Perhaps, this is God's way to get us all into church;) 
                  
    We apologize for any inconvenience and hope to see everyone’s bright smiles on Sunday at service and at the picnic at noon. Please help spread the word, thank you! 

   Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact our parish president, Jamie Levitsky at James.levitsky10@gmail.com or
203-832-8029.

P.s. our previous live band could not make it to the event on Sunday but another wonderful and well-known local band has agreed to help us out - Lou Conti The American Expression. They will be performing from 1pm-5pm. Don't miss it!

Also, please bring appropriate footwear for muddy conditions.
 
Wishing you a blessed rest of the week and a safe weekend!
In Christ,
Fr. Mark Rashkov
*Our primary liturgical/worship language is English, with Russian interspersed here and there*
Sacraments of Baptism & Wedding
Anyone wishing to be baptized or married in our parish is required to make a firm commitment of participation in the life of the Church, which starts with consistently attending the worship services. Consistency does not have to be every Sunday right away. You may start with once a month, or once every two months. Do that for a year or two, and then improve on it. Always progress, avoid regression.
Then, for Baptism enroll into catechism classes - a period of preparation that may take up to a year; for wedding enroll into Christian Marriage Preparation talks (around 9 sessions).
Confessions
Saturday after Vespers, Sunday before
​Divine Liturgy
or by appointment
House or Hospital Visit
If you can't make it to church due to illness or physical ailment, but would like to receive Holy Communion or Confession, or Anointing with the Holy oil (no, this is not the Last Rites), or just chat with a priest, call Father Mark to set up a visit
