Please see the following note from Fr. Gregory regarding Saturday evening Vespers for February 13:
Glory to Jesus Christ!
I hope this note finds you all well. Please note that, with today’s forecast of wintry weather, this evening’s Vespers Service has been canceled. However, as the precipitation is expected to end tonight, Liturgy tomorrow morning is still scheduled to begin at its normal time. So, in accordance with our Re-Opening procedure, please respond to this email and let me know if you plan on attending tomorrow morning’s 9am Divine Liturgy (who and how many from your family) – as you know, our attendance may be limited by state requirements. If you will attend, please remember to practice the required social distancing and wear a mask, as well as practicing the other precautionary suggestions listed in our Plan. And, of course, if you are not feeling well, or meet one or more of the high-risk criteria, you are urged to continue to worship from your home.
Finally, please be reminded that, if you have not already done so since our re-opening, you should contact me in order to set up a time to make your Confession, which is required before you may receive Holy Communion once again. And, as is always the case, if you have missed 3 or more consecutive Sunday Divine Liturgies, you must also make your Confession before again receiving Holy Communion, as specified by the Canons of the Church and our Hierarchs.
Thanks. As the threat of C-19 is far from over, I hope and pray that we all continue to use all due caution, and that you all take all of the care of yourselves that is necessary for your personal situations. Please do not hesitate to contact me if there is anything at all that I can do for you.
Please stay safe today! May the blessings of the Lord be upon you all.
With love in Christ,
frGregory
