Pentecost Weekend – May 30–June 1
Sunday we celebrate our Patronal Feast of Pentecost, with a full weekend of worship and fellowship.
Saturday: Orthros and Divine Liturgy with memorial prayers for our departed loved ones.
Sunday: Festal Divine Liturgy for the Descent of the Holy Spirit, followed by a parish luncheon. After the meal, we will offer Vespers and the Kneeling Prayers of Pentecost, the first time we kneel in prayer since Pascha. These prayers, written by St. Basil the Great, focus on humility, repentance, and calling upon the grace of the Holy Spirit.
Monday – Day of the Holy Spirit (Parish Name Day): We will welcome local clergy, their communities, and the brotherhood of Holy Cross Monastery. A light luncheon will follow the Liturgy.

We encourage everyone to use the parish chat groups, including the Coffee Hour groups and all other ministry groups. These chats make communication easier, help teams stay organized, and ensure no one misses important updates. Thank you for staying engaged and helping our ministries thrive.
