As we prepare for our annual meeting on February 19 is it important that those who have not yet paid their 2016 membership dues in fact do this to participate in the meeting. And given our membership dues are not too much ($55/year for a working adult and $27.50 for non working adults) why not just take care of 2017 now too? By joining St. Vladimir's you show your visible support of the parish which nourishes you and your family spiritually. We all hope the parish will be there when we need it (for marriages, funerals, baptisms, etc.). By joining the parish we support it both spiritually and financially. To renew your membership or to become a new member, please contact one of our membership coordinators: Vasiliy Krivtsov (vasiliy.krivtsov@gmail.com or 734-669-8712) or Dmitry Knysh (dmitriknysh@hotmail.com or 734-358-5996) or Konstantin Poplavsky (734-944-4087 or 419-344-2071).

We present here a short educational offering for both children and adults. Parents are asked to review the children’s portion with their children. It is very important for us to attend the Divine Services on Sundays and whenever else we are able, but in addition it is our spiritual responsibility to educate ourselves and our families in the faith. It is our hope that this mid-week offering will be an aid in this regard. Please contact Fr. Gregory with questions or suggestions.

For Adults: a homily by Metropolitan Hilarion (Alfeyev) on the beginning of the path that leads from Nativity to Pascha:

We had a simply incredible weekend at St. Vladimir's - and your efforts were so great to make it such a wonderful weekend that we have to mention it here. Yes - every weekend is wonderful: we have the honor to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection every Sunday and that is something to be thankful for! But in addition to that we managed a Vigil and our Annual Nativity Ball on Friday, as well as a baptism. Saturday saw Liturgy for St. Basil the Great, the beginning of our Church School spring semester, and a wonderful vigil for Sunday and St. Seraphim of Sarov, and on Sunday we celebrated the weekly Resurrectional Divine Liturgy, another baptism, and our Nativity Yolka. Wow - now that's a fruitful weekend! Thank you to EVERYONE who made all that possible. We couldn't possibly list all the names - we would forget someone or many someones and we don't want to do that. You know who you are, and more importantly, the Lord knows who you are. May He reward you in this life and in the next for helping our parish be, as St. Paul says, all things to all men so that all means some may be saved! Join us next weekend at St. Vladimir's!
