Fellowship, faith, and fun as the Junior Youth of St. Peter and St. Elias gathered for their second joint event on Friday, October 2nd.

The memorable evening began with a delicious Italian-style dinner, where the youth shared a meal and enjoyed ice cream for dessert. Following dinner, Fr. Thomas, priest of St. Mary’s Church of Orange, led an engaging and insightful Bible study. The session focused on the profound lessons of Luke 16, exploring both the Parable of the Unjust Steward and the Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man, sparking meaningful reflection on stewardship and compassion

The event wrapped up with energetic team-building activities, including:

• "Get to know you" questions in small groups to deepen friendships.
• A high-energy team relay race using kickballs.

St. Peter’s Syriac Orthodox Church was full of excitement today as children and families arrived for the first day of Sunday School. The morning started with Lord's Prayer and blessing from the priests in the church, welcoming everyone to the new school year.

Students walked happily into their classrooms to meet their teachers and start their first activities. During the classes, the children made colorful posters focused on big questions about their faith. They wrote and drew about:

-- How to connect to God every day
-- What Faith means to them
-- What it truly means to follow Jesus
-- Who is someone they pray for

In the Social Hall, the children and families enjoyed brunch style food with mini pancakes & assorted toppings, yogurt, fruits and hot and iced coffee. There were also games outside: jump rope, ribbon twirls, soccer, and jumbo dice.

Parents and church members were very happy to see so many children ready to learn about the Holy Bible.

Our Jr. Youth group gathered this past Friday, August 28th, to dive into Jesus’ parable of The Wise and Foolish Builders (Matthew 7:24-27).

Through this powerful story, we learned Strong faith requires a strong foundation. We discussed how building our lives on Jesus’ teachings protects us when life's storms hit.

Following the lesson, everyone put their scripture knowledge to the test in a fast-paced round of Bible trivia. We wrapped up the night by building community over delicious food and snacks. Thank you to everyone who came out to learn, laugh, and grow together!

Jesus ❤️ You

On Saturday, August 15th, we held prayers for the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.

Our Lady Virgin Mary is of Juda's tribe and the descendant of King David. She was born in 14 B.C. and was her pious parent's, Yovagim and Hane, the only daughter. When she was three years old, her parents took her to the temple of God as a vowed to Him and they died.

The priests and pious women brought her up. They taught her the worship, the virtuous deeds, the Hebrew language, the Old Testament, spinning wool, and weaving linen and silk until she was fourteen. Then she was espoused to Joseph the son of Jacob, who was a relative of her. She is regarded as the ultimate role model for woman in the church because of her faith, love, service, humbleness and being righteous.

Observed each year on 15 August, the feast commemorates the death of the Virgin Mary and, according to Christian tradition, her being taken into heaven.

The celebration is preceded by five days of fasting, during which worshipers traditionally abstain from animal products.

Grapes are at the center of the observance. During the liturgy, grapes are blessed with prayers before being distributed to worshipers

The feast also carries a seasonal significance, with the quality of the grape harvest traditionally associated with the blessing and prosperity of the vineyards in the year ahead
