Spring and Summer Brings Missionaries to our Doors - Share the Orthodox Faith 
29/8/19, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

As the weather grows warm missionaries from various religions tend to appear at our homes. At St. Vladimir's we have many pamphlets and booklets on the Orthodox Faith that are free for anyone to take. These can be found at the back of the church near the main entrance doors. Please feel free to take information home with you to share with the missionaries that come to visit you. It seems only fair that if they want us to take their information that we offer them information about Orthodox Christianity. Many missionaries have found the Orthodox Church in this way. No one is mandated to do this, but if you would like to you are welcome to. Please feel free to contact Fr. Gregory with questions in this regard.

Thank you to all who gave generously to Zoe for Life at our special collection yesterday. We met our $1000 match so Zoe for Life will receive $2000 from St. Vladimir’s for their important work!

Monday First Things - Teachings of the Holy Fathers 
26/8/19, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory


“You receive the Cup which seemingly comes from the hands of man. What is it to you whether the bearer of the Cup acts righteously or unrighteously? As a follower of Jesus, your concern is to act righteously; to receive the Cup with thanksgiving to God and with a living faith; and courageously to drink it to the dregs.”

+ St. Ignatius (Brianchaninov)

An anonymous donor has made a $1,000 Matching Grant available for a special collection for our Zoe for Life joint ministry with St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church. This is for donations to St. Vladimir made from now until the end of the Liturgy on Sunday, August 25, 2019 and designated for Zoe for Life. We will hold a special collection on August 25 in support of this matching grant, but if you would like to make a donation before then please give your donation to our Treasurer, Mikhail Fisenkov or our Starosta, Jack Mitchell. We thank our anonymous donor and all who will give to help Zoe for Life, a pan-Orthodox effort that helps mothers to decide not to abort their children by providing them with material support they need for their child. If you would like to learn more about Zoe for Life please contact Fr. Gregory, Addie Lanterman, or Leta Nikulshina. Volunteers are always welcome and needed for this important ministry!

WALK OF LIFE PILGRM/WALKER SIGN UP

If you have questions please contact Fr. Gregory. Yes – this is only a few weeks ahead of the festival and those who are working hard on the festival should not feel that they need to help with this event. But those who are NOT working hard on the festival SHOULD feel that they need to help with this event – an event that is so important for our parish, deanery, and diocesan youth. Please pitch in – many hands make light work!

IOCC Kits this Dormition Fast 
19/8/19, 06:00 PM
Posted by Fr. Gregory


The Lenten period in preparation for the feast of the Dormition of the Mother of God begins August 14. It is our tradition to make IOCC School Kits (to help kids in countries that need to bring their own school supplies to school in order to attend school) during this Lenten period. We’ll do the same this year. On Sunday, August 18 we will have a special collection to support this effort. If you can’t make it that day please contact Marina Edwards to make your donation. On Saturday, August 24 we will make the school kits following the Divine Liturgy (starting about 10:30 a.m.). This is an important effort to get our KIDS involved in. They will be helping their peers in other countries to be educated. Please plan to join us in supporting this important effort!
