Nameday

Our church will be celebrating the feast day of St. Michael. St. Michael is an Archangel who stands at the throne of God, and does His bidding. This means for those of you who are not Orthodox, we celebrate Vespers on Saturday, and a Divine Liturgy on Sunday. (All those who's name begins with Michael will be celebrating their name day.) (Also, Michelle, and other feminine names).

Sometimes, the bishop comes out, in our case, it is His eminence Dr. Nicolae (Condra), who is an Archbishop. Or, His Grace Ioan Casian De Vicina, who is our Auxiliary Bishop. The pastor of our parish is The Rev. Dr. Peter-Michael Preble. The Cantor is Mr. Vasile Muresan.

On Saturday, following Vespers, we will serve hors d'oeuvres, pastry, apple cider and coffee. Following Liturgy, Sunday, we will enjoy a full turkey and ham dinner, complete with dessert.

We are very much looking forward to these festivities, and to being with friends, family and other church members from St. Nicholas Parish, and St. Michael's.

We have been working hard in preparation to receive our guests, and as in all events held in our parish, we pray for it's success.
