Glory to Jesus Christ!
On this joyous day, 25 March, we wish everyone a blessed Feast of the Annunciation of our Most Holy Lady, Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary!
Today is the beginning of our salvation, | the revelation of the eternal mystery! | The Son of God becomes the Son of the Virgin | as Gabriel announces the coming of Grace. | Together with him let us cry to the Theotokos: | Hail, O Full of Grace, | the Lord is with You!
— Troparion (short hymn) for the Feast of the Annunciation
Glory to Jesus Christ!

Glory to Jesus Christ!
Please join us on Sunday, 17 March 2024, for the Divine Liturgy followed by the Rite of Forgiveness, after which we will enter into the Great Fast (Great Lent).
All are welcome!
About the Rite of Forgiveness:
“… on the very threshold of the Great Fast, at Vespers on the Sunday of Forgiveness, there is a special ceremony of mutual reconciliation: for without love towards others there can be no genuine fast. And this love for others should not be limited to formal gestures or to sentimental feelings, but should issue in specific acts of almsgiving. … It is to give not only our money but our time, not only what we have but what we are; it is to give a part of ourselves”. — from The Meaning of the Great Fast, The Lenten Triodion. Mother Mary and Archimandrite Kallistos Timothy Ware (St. Tikhon’s Seminary Press, 2002).
Glory to Jesus Christ!
