DIVINE SERVICES FOR SUNDAY, MAY 2, 2021
Due to the pandemic we have guidelines that must be followed. Please find those here:

HELP US KEEP THE PARISH OPEN DURING THE PANDEMIC
Services in the barn (mostly Sunday Liturgies) do not require sign up. All other services (which are held inside the church building) do - including Saturday evening Vigil and the Sunday 8:00 a.m. Divine Liturgy. Sign up here:
DIVINE SERVICES WEEK OF APRIL 26, 2021

Those who confess beginning on Friday, April 23 and any time during Holy Week may partake of Divine Communion during any of the Holy Week & Bright Week Divine Liturgies if they have read their pre-Communion rule. Please plan to come to Confession early in Holy Week so that your Confession will not be rushed due to long lines of others waiting for Confession. ONCE YOU HAVE CONFESSED YOU SHOULD NOT CONFESS AGAIN UNLESS YOU FALL INTO A VERY, VERY, VERY SERIOUS SIN. There are MANY who need to confess this week - literally hundreds. Please be merciful to your priests and only confess one time unless there is an extraordinarily serious need to confess a second time.

We present here a short educational offering for both children and adults on the upcoming Sunday's principle Gospel reading so that all can better prepare for the Divine Services. 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: from the writings of Blessed Theophylact

For Youth: from the Antiochian Archdiocese (various age groups)

Some of our parish family have expressed Covid-related concerns at joining the one large Paschal service we have scheduled. St. Paul says “I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.” (I Corinthians 9:22). We need to do that as a parish too – within reason we need to serve all our parishioners if at all possible. And we can have a second Liturgy on Pascha. And so we will. The second Paschal Divine Liturgy will be in the parish church proper and begin at 8:00 a.m. We invite those who are concerned about the pandemic, or who otherwise cannot be at the midnight Liturgy to sign up to participate – sign up is required, as is masking and social distancing:

SIGN UP FOR SECOND PASCHA LITURGY
Please note that we have a Paschal Vespers and Matins EVERY EVENING and Paschal Divine Liturgy EVERY DAY of Bright Week. We invite those that cannot participate in one of the two services on Pascha to join us for these services, or all who just love the Paschal services (and who doesn’t?!) to join us for as many of these services as possible. One simply cannot sing “Christ is Risen” enough times! Sign up for Bright Week services here:

SIGN UP FOR BRIGHT WEEK

Paschal baskets will be blessed at St. Vladimir's following the Divine Liturgy on Holy Saturday as well as every subsequent Divine Service of Bright Week. It is most traditional for baskets to be blessed after the Divine Liturgy on Pascha itself, but we realize that this does not work for everyone's schedule, and thus we offer an early opportunity (after the Holy Saturday Divine Liturgy) and later opportunities (after every Divine Service of Bright Week). If you basket is blessed on Holy Saturday after Liturgy you agree that you will not partake of the non-Lenten foods until after the Divine Liturgy on Pascha night, for the fast does not end at midnight, but after the Divine Liturgy!
