Dormition of the Virgin Mary
image
On Sunday, August 15th, the Mission celebrated the Dormition of Virgin Mary, which commemorates her death, burial, and resurrection, following the footsteps of her Divine Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

It was a special celebration this year as the feast fell upon a Sunday. Among the many visitors which packed the church, we welcomed Protodeacon Gregory Moser, who assisted with the Divine Services. At the conclusion of the Liturgy, the faithful received blessed flowers as a reminder of the beauty and sweet fragrance of the feast.

Below are photo galleries from the Great Vespers with Litiya, served on Saturday evening, and the Divine Liturgy with Blessing of Flowers, served on Sunday morning.

We extend to you all our greetings on this joyous feastday!

Sunday of Orthodoxy - 03/09/25

On March 9, 2025, we celebrated the Sunday of Orthodoxy with a procession of icons to the Archway at our roadside entrance during the Divine Liturgy. There we had a reading of the ancient Synodicon, the affirmation of the Orthodox Faith that our salvation is proclaimed in both words and images, and the faithful recited the Nicene Creed. We congratulate all who celebrate on this day!
