Please find this week's issue of "The Good News" at the link below. This bulletin/handout contains the Troparia and Kontakia that will be sung by the choir at today's Divine Liturgy as well as the readings from the Epistle and Gospel readings of the day - all in both English and Russian. This little bulletin is distributed to visitors and others who may find it useful by our parish Greeters on duty today at St. Vladimir's. We cordially invite you to join us at St. Vladimir's for Divine Liturgy at 10:00 a.m. - or any Sunday soon. You are always welcome at St. Vladimir's!

This Sunday's "The Good News":

Please note that there will be just one Divine Liturgy this Sunday, at 10:00 a.m. Please pass the word to those whom you assume, or even suspect, might be planning to attend the early Liturgy this Sunday. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

Friends,

Greetings from Kiev!

Unfortunately there is no one to sing at the Liturgy tomorrow morning so we will have to cancel it. Please forgive the inconvenience and please spread the word to those whom you know or suspect we’re planning to attend.

In Christ,

Fr. Gregory

At the annual meeting on Sunday, May 16 we explained that it is understood and expected that each member of our parish would have at least one duty that they participate in IN ADDITION to attending the Divine Services. This ranges from baking prosphora, to picking sticks in the cemetery, to shoveling snow, and more! If we all do our little part we will equitably care for the parish the Lord has entrusted to us, and we will not kill off those who do these things if no one else does. It is wise for us to preserve the leadership of our parish, but it is also moral for each parish member to do their part. So please pitch in, and if you have not chosen your duty yet please contact our new parish Secretary, Marina Edwards. If she doesn’t hear from you she will reach out to you soon. You can email her at info@stvladimiraami.org or see her in church. Thank you diligently following through on this program. More involvement in the parish promotes persistence in being part of the parish family – and it keeps a few people from doing everything. With God’s help we will make our metaphor of “family” even more real in our parish by working together for God’s glory in this way!

Let thy mind fast from vain thoughts; let thy memory fast from remembering evil; let thy will fast from evil desire; let thine eyes fast from bad sights: turn away thine eyes that thou mayest not see vanity; let thine ears fast from vile songs and slanderous whispers; let thy tongue fast from slander, condemnation, blasphemy, falsehood, deception, foul language and every idle and rotten word; let thy hands fast from killing and from stealing another’s goods; let thy legs fast from going to evil deeds: Turn away from evil, and do good.

+ St. Tikhon of Zadonsk

DIVINE SERVICES FOR SUNDAY, JUNE 27, 2021
Sign up, social distancing, and masking is no longer required as of June 22, 2021. Join us!

We were very thankful to receive a check from Prime Dental for $595 on Sunday. That was great! That is 10% of the fees charged to St. Vladimirians there for the last quarter. But it could be so much more! Just a short trip to Farmington Hills to receive state of the art dental care and you will be supporting our building fund. And here's the thing: you are getting your teeth cared for somewhere. Why not support your parish while you do that?

Call Prime Dental now and make an appointment (and talk to them about PPO insurance and other such details). Care for your teeth and help us to build our new church!
