YESTERDAY’S PARISH BULLETINS ENGLISH + РУССКИЙ

SHARE A MEAL WITH US AFTER LITURGY THIS SUNDAY

ONE: YOUTH GROUPS MEET THIS SUNDAY
All our Youth Groups meet this coming Sunday! Please note that the 9-12 year old group and the teen group will meet AT THE CHURCH RIGHT AFTER THE PARISH MEAL. We will make food for our Christmas Bake Sale. The proceeds from that bake sale help us build the new church. That helps us bring people to Christ. And thus we see that our young people will be laboring for God’s glory as they bake this Sunday! Our Young Adult Group meets at Fr. Gregory’s house at 6:00 p.m. as usual.

FIVE: OUTSTANDING ARTICLE FOR ALL TO READ
EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS ARTICLE by Fr. Colin. It is meant for catechumens on one hand, but we are all learning and should be learning about our faith at all times. EVERYONE = ALL STV PARISHIONERS, FRIENDS, LOVED ONES, ACQUAINTANCES, COWORKERS, STRANGERS, ENEMIES, ETC. You will be glad you took the <10 minutes to read this!

BONUS A: STV FINANCIAL AMBASSADORS – BUILDING OUR NEW CHURCH
Our parish Finance Ambassadors (Marina Edwards, Mikhail Fisenkov, Dmitri Knysh) will approach each of our parishioners to discuss how each will give his “mite” to make our new building project financially strong and successful. That is, how to establish a tithe that works for you. Those conversations will remain anonymous and confidential. If we think that SOMEONE ELSE will build OUR new church – we are frankly deluded. WE need to do this. And WE = ALL. Please prayerfully consider how you can support the revised design. Then join the winning team! Leave an Orthodox legacy for your children, grandchildren, and people you do not even know!

BONUS B: FOR PARENTS
In general it is very important that parents supervise their children in the church. Of course, we all have to keep an eye out for the kids in case they fall out of their parents’ gaze, but in the end parents must take responsibility for their children. This responsibility also reaches to the kiosk area. There are, by design, nice things there that people might want to buy for themselves or others. If your kids damage something there please make sure to pay for that. It is not reasonable for the kiosk to have to absorb that cost, and it is irreponsible on the part of parents to expect that it is OK for their child to destroy things there. If one of the kiosk ladies comes to you and lets you know that your child damaged something in the kiosk please do two things: make sure she is talking about your child, then make sure to pay for the damage.
