ST. VLADIMIR’S IS OPEN EVERY DAY!

11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

Stop by to pray, light a candle, experience the peace of the parish church, more...

Please invite friends to stop by - all are welcome!

St. Vladimirians: We need folks to volunteer to fill in when our main staff have vacation or are sick.

Please contact Fr. Gregory if you can help or if you can commit to another time to keep the church open. We'd love to add evening hours as well!

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: an explanation of the Sunday's gospel reading by Blessed Theophylact:

Unfortunately our usual source for children's resources is down. We hope to continue to use that resource in the future...

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 cordially invite you to join our parish family!

Please find our membership form here – you can just fill this out and return to one of the membership coordinators:

Second Sunday of the Month: ORPR Camper Meeting
