[friends] Weekly Update - Bulletin & Prayer List

[Friends of St. Christina Orthodox Church]

Dear Friends of St. Christina's
 
Attached are our bulletin and prayer list from last week.
 
Wow, what a wonderful BBQ we had for Meatfare! Thanks to Mary Zellem, Russel
Gatschet and Todd Crosby for taking the leadership on this wonderful event,
and to everyone who helped by bringing food, cleaning up, etc..!
 
But the joy goes on! We will be entering Great Lent together as a family
united in Christ beginning with a cheesefare potluck on Sunday followed by
Forgiveness Sunday Vespers. How blessed we are to have the opportunity to
"clear the air" with our brothers and sisters in Christ by asking for each
others' forgiveness and rejoicing in the fact that "God forgives."
 
Reminders:

*	We will have a cheesefare potluck brunch after Liturgy on Sunday.
Bring your cheeses and creamiest!
*	After the potluck we will have Forgiveness Sunday Vespers followed
by the Rite of Forgiveness.
*	Great Lent begins Monday. As the first week of Lent we will hold
services each night at 7pm. Everyone should do their best to attend some of
the services this week.

*	Monday - Thursday we will celebrate Great Compline with the Canon of
St. Andrew 
*	Friday we will celebrate the Liturgy of the Presanctified gifts
followed by a Lenten potluck

Wishing everyone a blessed remainder of the week!
 
In Christ,
 
Fr. Michael
