Christ is Risen from the dead!
Trampling down death by death!
And upon those in the tombs bestowing Life!

"The crucified God resurrected and overcame death.Death is no more. Immortality has overtaken man and the whole of his world. By conquering the sin within him through Christ, a man also conquers death."

Yesterday's Divine Liturgy was a wonderful Blessing, and we are grateful to be able to share some more of these moments with you all. If any of you have never witnessed a Divine Liturgy... Come and See ☦️

•But I say to you, the Lord says, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, pray for those who persecute you. Why did he command these things? So that he might free you from hatred, sadness, anger and grudges, and might grant you the greatest possession of all, perfect love, which is impossible to possess except by the one who loves all equally in imitation of God.•
-Saint Maximus the Confessor

Our parish was graced with a special presence during Tuesday’s Divine Liturgy - the Wonderworking “Hawaiian” Iveron Icon of the Mother of God. What a profound spiritual experience to have this revered icon in our midst as we worshipped.

The icon’s visit brought an extra layer of reverence and connection to our service. We’re grateful for this rare opportunity to venerate such a significant piece of our Orthodox faith.
