At the Parish Council meeting on March 11, 2017 a Stewardship Education Team was appointed by the Parish Council consisting of Fr. Gregory, Jack (Alexey) Mitchel, and Leta (Ksenia) Nikulshina. The charge of this team is to provide our parish family with educational information about stewardship. In this regard, we intend to send out an email and post on our parish web site a quarterly communication in preparation for a quarterly parish finance report out.

Please find the quarterly communication at the link below. Please feel free to contact any of us, or any of the Parish Council members, with questions at any time. Or, if you prefer, use the second link below to ask a question or make a comment anonymously.

We thank you sincerely for your generous support of our parish! And we look forward to hearing from you at your convenience regarding this information.

Dear parents of potential bell-ringers,

Christ is Risen! Everyone is welcome to learn bell-ringing.

Starting June 19th there will be bell-ringing instruction after Divine Liturgy.

In the meantime, whenever you hear the bells, send your children out. Besides learning how to ring, they need to know when to ring. I will briefly explain the place in the service and the reason for bells at that time and then send them back. You are welcome to come out too.

If you can provide them with ear protection, do so. The parish will be investing in some, so if you can't, don't worry.

There are two types of ear protection: over-the-ear (more comfortable but more expensive. If you buy a pair, put your child's name on it) and in-the-ear (cheaper but harder to put in).

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.
