The 2021 Great Lenten schedule is available now at this link:

GREAT LENT 2021 SCHEDULE
On Wednesday evenings after the Presanctified Divine Liturgy Fr. Joseph will lead a book discussion on the book “Great Lent – Journey to Pascha” by Fr. Alexander Schmemann. Those who would like to participate in this discussion group are asked to email confirmation to info@stvladimiraammi.org not later than March 10, 2021. It is necessary to order the appropriate number of books, thus the need for a deadline.

All are welcome at St. Vladimir's! Please join us this Sunday! More information can be found at this link, and we encourage you to share this with family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers!

All are welcome! The services will be inside the church, so we ask that you sign up. This allows us to understand the number of people that will attend since we have limited, physically distanced spaces inside the temple. The link to the sign up sheet can be found on our parish home page. If you have any trouble finding that please email: info@stvladimriaami.org.

Our parish annual meeting will be moved to May 3/16, 2021, according to a unanimous vote by the Parish Council. We hope that we will be able to hold this meeting outside. This will be the Sunday of the Myrrh-Bearing Women, which means our St. John Brotherhood will be preparing the meal, and that is always a very good meal! Please plan to join us on May 16 for the parish annual meeting. Materials in preparation for the annual meeting will be sent during Great Lent in plenty of time for all to review and prepare for the meeting.

The church has two furnaces actually, and thank God for that. When the one in the back (west end) of the church failed, the other one was able to pick up the heating slack and keep the pipes from bursting and from any other damage to the church. The old furnace was replaced this last week and if you’d like to help offset this cost please contact our treasurer, Mikhail Fisenkov, at treasurer@stvladimiraami.org.

Those who are tithing are probably thinking: why are we asking for help? If everyone is tithing we shouldn’t have to ask the parish for this type of help. That is correct! But not everyone has established a tithe. That is OK - we are not mad. :) But this is what each of us should be striving for: to answer this spiritual question (because tithing is not a financial question – it is a spiritual one). So please have a look at this page, where you can learn more about how and why, we as Orthodox Christians, should make this decision long before we come to church on Sunday morning - and please contact Fr. Gregory or any of our Parish Council members with questions:

It took us a little while to figure this all out, but the biggest problem we have in the barn right now is that it is TOO WARM! Yesterday it was about 60F in the barn. Not a tropical paradise, but pretty comfortable. We saw people taking off their coats! So - if you are staying away from the services in the winter worship space because it is too cold please know - you’re working with old information! Come join us this Sunday and every Sunday at 10 a.m. in the W3 (warm winter worship) space!

If you have sinned, acknowledge the sin and repent. God will forgive the sin and once again give you a new heart…and a new spirit (Ez. 36:26). There is no other way: Either do not sin, or repent.

During Great Lent at all weekday services and on many Saturdays (beginning even before Great Lent with the first Soul Saturday on March 6) the departed are specially commemorated. You can arrange commemoration of your friends and loved ones by visiting our special page in this regard here:

PRAYER REQUESTS
There is lots of good information there and you should read that at some point. If you don’t have time to do that please visit our on-line form to submit names (under the commemoration of the departed you can choose “Great Lent 2021: All Weekday Services + Soul Saturdays”). If you are in a financial position to make a donation for commemorating your loved ones you can do that here – if you aren’t this is not a problem as the Church does not charge for prayer, but is thankful for donations in this regard of course:

DONATE

All are welcome at St. Vladimir's! Please join us this Sunday! More information can be found at this link, and we encourage you to share this with family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers!
