Part of the Matthew 25 Challenge: “I was hungry and you fed Me”

Please join us for the Chelsea/Dexter Crop Hunger Walk! There is no cost to participate, but all who participate are asked to try to raise at least $100. One-fourth of the funds raised stays in our community to support local hunger and poverty fighting programs.

We will hold an organizational meeting for walkers on Sunday, September 30 following the Divine Liturgy (during the parish meal). Please plan to join us for that and please plan to participate in this worthy endeavor!

People often ask us how they can make donations to St. Vladimir’s other than by making a donation at church. We work continuously to make this as easy for our parish family and friends as we can and we appreciate your feedback in this regard.

This is a fast day no matter on which day of the week the feast falls, this year on a Thursday. Vigil will be held on Wednesday, September 26 at 6:00 p.m. with the brining forth of the Cross. Divine Liturgy will take place on September 27 at 8:00 a.m. Please join us as your personal schedule allows!

MORE INFORMATION

“This expression, however, ‘the Word was made flesh’ [John 1:14], can mean nothing else but that he partook of flesh and blood like to us; he made our body his own, and came forth man from a woman, not casting off his existence as God, or his generation of God the Father, but even in taking to himself flesh remaining what he was. This the declaration of the correct faith proclaims everywhere. This was the sentiment of the holy Fathers; therefore they ventured to call the holy Virgin, the Mother of God, not as if the nature of the Word or his divinity had its beginning from the holy Virgin, but because of her was born that holy body with a rational soul, to which the Word, being personally united, is said to be born according to the flesh.”

+ St. Cyril of Alexandria
