On Sunday, April 9, we celebrated the triumphant entry into Jerusalem of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ, riding on the foal of a donkey (fulfilling Zechariah 9:9), and greeted by the joyous crowd who were bearing palm fronds and exclaiming: “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord!”(Ps 118:26)

We’re looking forward to joining with you this Sunday!

While we had hoped to meet in person, the aftermath of the snow and ice has led us to decide to hold an online Orthros (Matins) service, and we will remember the Translation of the Relics of Nikephoros, Patriarch of Constantinople; and Bishops Poplias and Marios.

The Matins (Orthros) will be available on Zoom. Remember, you do not have to have the camera nor microphone on.
