Blessed Father’s Day! ☦️

We give thanks to God for the beloved fathers in our community, for their love, guidance, strength and example.

With grateful hearts, ladies and the youth came together to lovingly prepare and share these homemade cookies as a small token of appreciation for the fathers who nurture their families in faith and love.

May God grant them many years, strength, wisdom, and every good blessing. 🙏🏼

🌿 The Beginning of the New Ecclesiastical Year – 1 September 🌿

On 1 September, the Orthodox Church begins the New Ecclesiastical Year, giving thanks to God the Creator and praying for the renewal, blessing, and protection of all creation.

We are reminded that Christ, the Creator of all things, has entered His creation to make all things new. In the synagogue, He proclaimed the words of Isaiah: “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing” (Luke 4:21), announcing the “acceptable year of the Lord.”

On this blessed day, we also commemorate our righteous Father St. Simeon the Stylite of Aleppo, whose life of prayer, humility, and steadfast devotion to Christ remains a powerful witness of holiness.

🙏 Join us for the Divine Liturgy at 10:30 AM as we begin this new ecclesiastical year together, asking God to bless the year ahead and renew our hearts in Christ.

Blessed New Ecclesiastical Year! ✝️🌿

The story of Job reminds us that even in seasons of suffering, God remains faithful. May we learn to trust Him, not only for His blessings, but simply because He is God. 🙏🏻
