21st Diocesan Council Committee
The New Jersey Deanery is hosting the all Diocesan Council
of the American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Church, in July
at the Ukrainian Orthodox Center in South Bound Brook, New
Jersey. Parishioners are needed from every New Jersey
parish to volunteer to help host this council. Our
Deanery held an organizational meeting in Our Church Hall
on Sunday, May 3 at 3:00pm. The next one is scheduled
for early June. Please consider attending to learn how you
can be of service to the Diocese.

Food Pantry Established
The Altar Guild has established a
Food Pantry for those who find themselves without a meal.
This does not replace our Food For Friends program which
provides assistance with groceries and a weekly meal.
The purpose of the Pantry is to provide emergency assistance
for those people who have been without a meal. This
will help provide a few meals until they are established
with the Food For Friends program or other assistance programs.

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,
Fr. Andrew
