Weekly Bulletin

If you would like to tithe to the church, cash and checks can be dropped off in the boxes at the back of the church, or consider signing up for automatic tithing via tithe.ly. Every contribution helps keep our lights on and our services going. Our treasurer Rdr. Marcian is always available to answer any questions. “So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7)

**A reminder to confess before Saturday night to commune on Pascha– there will be plenty of opportunities during the week. We want to start the Paschal services on time.** To fast for Pascha: Fr Mark recommends having your last meal before 8pm and last drinks at 10pm. Any questions about this, please reach out to him. Parking reminder: If you are able bodied and do not have children, please park across the street at Parkway Bible Assembly on Friday evening and Saturday night, as we WILL run out of parking space in our lot and we have many families with children. Older children should try to stay awake as possible during the services, but if they need to lay down or sleep, the children's room (first door on the right) is available Saturday night as a space for children to spread out on sleeping bags or blankets. Please try to keep the pews clear for adults who may need to sit down. The nursery is exclusively for nursing mothers and tending to the needs of our youngest children and babies. On Pascha, we bring baskets to church filled with things we abstained from during the fast. They are left downstairs and blessed at the end of liturgy, before we begin a joyful, especially festive trapeza. Now is a good time to find a basket and start planning what you'll put inside it. Below are links that explain some of the traditional foods included in Pascha baskets, but you can include whatever you wish! People often bring pizza, fried chicken, pies, pot roast, and whatever else they missed during the fast. Baskets are largely for individual consumption, but you are also welcome to bring food to share if you wish. Please note, however, that everything you bring HAS to be taken home at the end of the night.
