Icon of St. Silouan the Athonite Glory be to the Lord and His compassion - He loveth us greatly, and giveth us His peace and the grace of the Holy Spirit.St. Silouan the Athonite
Lenten Prayer of St. Ephraim the Syrian

O Lord and Master of my life! Take from me the spirit of sloth, faint-heartedness, lust of power, and idle talk. But give rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience, and love to Thy servant. Yea, O Lord and King! Grant me to see my own errors and not to judge my brother; For Thou art blessed unto ages of ages. Amen.

Great Lent Begins

The period of Great Lent began on Forgiveness Sunday, February 14. During this time, we will have additional services Wednesday evenings (Presanctified Liturgy, 6:30 PM) and Fridays (Akathist Hymn, 7:00 PM). You can read more about Great Lent on our Archdiocesan web site on a new web page for Lent.

Our new icons are here!

The new, large icons for our iconostasis arrived a few days for the Feast of the Nativity and were installed for the midnight Divine Liturgy on Christmas. They were blessed at services for Theophany with the "Jordan water" that was blessed in the beautiful service of this feast. These six icons provide a beautiful expression of our faith and add to our worship in our chapel!

We have received our 2010 wall calendars, which are customized with our own church name! These calendars are very attractice, with an icon and Psalm reading for each month of the year. They also include the scripture readings for each day. Get one at church soon!
