THIS WEEK’S PARISH BULLETINS ENGLISH + РУССКИЙ

SCHEDULE OF DIVINE SERVICES AT STV
ONE: HUGE THANK YOU AND CONGRATULATIONS!
Thank you to everyone who made the visit of Archbishop Gabriel such a resounding success at STV! To those who sang to those who served to those who cooked to those who cleaned and to everyone else who pitched in: THANK YOU!!! And congratulations to our newly-ordained Priest Mikhail Moibenko and his family! And to Aleksandr Belyarchik from McKinney, Texas, who was ordained a deacon on Sunday as well. And to our Ksenia Nikulshina who was honored with a thanksgiving gramota by Archbishop Gabriel for her years of dedicated service to our parish family! What a weekend – now onward to the celebration of our Lord’s Nativity!


Our friend and parishioner who moved to Canada, Sergei Kandikov, has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. Of course this is not good, but we must pray for God's mercy. Please remember Sergei regularly in your prayers. Every day if you can!

TWO: END OF YEAR DONATIONS FOR TAX PURPOSES
Dear St. Vladimir’s Parishioners! We would like to urge you to consider whether making a donation to the parish before December 31, 2025 would be helpful for you as you consider your tax liability for the year 2025. Donations to St. Vladimir Church are deductible to the greatest extent allowable by law. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions in this regard. It is also very important that your address be up to date in our parish database. If you have moved this year please contact our parish Secretary, Marina Edwards (info@stvladimiraami.org), with your new address.

Mikhail Fisenkov, Treasurer (treasurer@stvladimiraami.org)

THREE: MEMBERSHIP MONTH!
December is always Membership Month! Learn more, pay dues, sign up on our MEMBERSHIP PAGE.

FOUR: CONFESS EARLY (AND NOT OFTEN) FOR THE LORD’S NATIVITY+ALL SERVICES FOR THE FEAST
It is a pious tradition at St. Vladimir Church for virtually everyone to partake of the Holy Mysteries on the Feast of our Lord’s Nativity and we encourage this strongly. Please confess early for the feast! Confessions will be heard at the following times – please take advantage of this opportunity by making an appointment at calendly.com/ogrisha or by contacting Fr. Gregory.

Thursday, January 1: Confession During Evening Services
Friday, January 2: Confession During Evening Services
Saturday, January 3: Confession 3:00 - 6:00 p.m. (by appointment: calendly.com/ogrisha) and During Evening Services
Monday, January 5: Confession During Evening Services
Thursday, January 6: Confession 3:00 - 6:00 p.m. (by appointment: calendly.com/ogrisha) and During Evening Services

PLEASE NOTE!!! Those who have confessed beginning January 1 need not (and should not!) confess again before Nativity, but are welcome to partake of the Holy Mysteries having prepared themselves by reading the appointed prayer rule and attending the Divine Services for the feast.

FIVE: 2026 WALL CALENDARS
The parish will distribute 2026 wall calendars as usual, beginning on January 4. These will also be available on the Lord’s Nativity. After that, we will send them to you if you don’t pick yours up. This is by far our most expensive mailing of the year. Every calendar that is picked up, rather than sent in the mail, allows us to use those funds for good!
