Letter-FRM-Met.Tik_.-Lenten-Message-2024

WANTED: Psalm Readers During Saturday Confessions

It is our parish’s custom that for the privacy of the penitent and the edification of those waiting in line, the Psalter is read during Saturday evening confessions. If you are interested in reading the Psalter during this time, please click here to sign up. If you are a native speaker of a language other than English, it may be possible to read it in that language. No chanting experience necessary, you are welcome to simply read the psalter aloud.

STOCK UP ON YOUR LENTEN READING!

Spiritual reading is an important part of our Lenten discipline along with fasting, prayer and alms-giving. It stirs up our zeal, teaches us genuine faith, and helps us to stay focused and aimed at the right mark. Come visit us at the bookstore or the library to stock up on your Lenten reading.

Bookstore – We have many Lenten devotionals in the bookstore as well as the lives and writings of the saints. Our Lenten sale runs March 3-April 14 with all books 15% off.  Stop by and browse during coffee hour or anytime we are open.

Orthodox Jurisdictions in America

What’s an “Antiochian?” Are there “Pro-ochians” somewhere? Why are there “Georgian” Orthodox parishes over 800 miles from Atlanta? If the Orthodox Church in America used to be the “Russian Orthodox” Church, why are there all of these “Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia” churches dotted all around the American countryside? What do all the acronyms mean? ACROD? OCA? GOA? And what is the relationship of all of these people to one another?

If you find these many names and the jurisdictional situation of American Orthodoxy a bit confusing, you’re not alone! Thankfully, help is on the way to assist us in understanding what is going on here. On Thursday, October 12, at 6 pm, Fr. Isaac Daneviscious of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in Altoona will deliver a public lecture on the present ecclesiastical situation of Orthodoxy in America. 

This lecture is open to the public and will be streamed live on our YouTube feed, as well as being available for replay in that format.
