News

On Saturday, August 27 preparations were made for the possibility of flooding on the parish property due to
Hurricane Irene. By 3:30am evacuations were being made on W. Grand Ave as the river began to flood the neighborhood at a surprisingly rapid rate. Further
preparations were made to safeguard the Church but by 5:00am in was necessary to abandon any work and return to the rectory for
safety. By 8am flood waters began to enter the Church Hall the flood water reached the windows, doors and
ventilations openings. The waters continued to rise through the morning flooding the Hall with
approximately 9 feet of water. When the water receded on Monday we began pumping the water from the Hall. The pumping continued until Tuesday evening at 10pm when the last of the water was removed. The removal and clean up began on Thursday with some 20 parishioners and neighbors and continued until Saturday. Once the clean up, inspection and
disinfecting is complete, we will be able to contract with the proper professionals to rebuild the hall. Until then, your patience is greatly appreciated as we work through this difficult time together.

EXPLORE ORTHODOX CHRISTIANITY |
|
If you are interested in prayer, join us for Vespers on a Saturday evening at 6:30pm. Vespers or the All Night Vigil is the traditional service on the eve of the celebration of the Liturgy. We celebrate in a very simple and quiet manner, usually just a priest, deacon and a reader; those who desire to sing, sing the evening's hymns and responses, other pray silently. Service books and music are available in the vestibule in an easy to follow format. We pray that you will have the opportunity to join us some Saturday evening.
With love
in Christ, |
