Thank God we have the ONLY ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CEMETERY IN MICHIGAN. There are others, but new burials are no longer allowed in any other Orthodox Cemetery in our state. What a blessing the Lord has given us! Let us take advantage of this blessing and arrange our burial plots at the earliest opportunity. St. Vladimir’s members receive a discount on their plot – and YOU CAN PAY OVER TIME WITH NO INTEREST CHARGE. Reserve your plot now – visit our parish cemetery page:

The single best way for us to pray for our friends and loved ones is to arrange for them to be remembered at the Divine Liturgy. We serve approximately 130 Divine Liturgies per year, so your friends or loved ones will be prayed for approximately ever three days as a rule at St. Vladimir's. Please visit the page linked below to learn more and to arrange for your friends and loved ones to be commemorated at the Divine Liturgy at St. Vladimir’s

For those young people who do not sing in the choir or serve in the altar WE NEED YOU! Bells are a very important part of our worship, and our Christian witness, and we need to get those bells ringing again! Contact John Hill to learn more. We have a beautiful set of bells – let us use this gift the Lord has given us for the good of our parish family and our neighbors!

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 Various Ages: from the Antiochian Archdiocese (various age groups)

God willing, Archbishop Peter will visit our parish on Saturday, August 27. Please begin to plan now for that date so that you can join us for the visit of our Abba – our father in Christ. Our hierarchs are the successors to the Apostles. All should plan to be present for the Divine Services on August 26 and 27, and if at all possible to prepare to partake of Holy Communion on August 27. More details coming soon!

Our parish feast day, our Second Pascha, always falls on July 28. This year that is a Thursday. Have you ask for that time off of work yet? If not – now is the time! This is the second most important day in our parish annually – it is a time we all gather and honor our patron saint while we thank God for His great mercy to our parish family. Don’t miss our feast day! Get the day off of work today!

On Tuesday evening we will hold Evening Services at 6:00 p.m. in preparation for Divine Liturgy for the Leavetaking of Pascha on Wednesday morning at 8:00 a.m. Divine Liturgy will be followed by our Pre-K catechism at 10:00 a.m. More information and a sign up sheet for our Pre-K catechism can be found here:
