Participation During Divine Liturgy As Orthodox Christians we call our worship the Divine Liturgy because our work and labor that serves a divine purpose. Our Lord and Savior must be worshiped and glorified at all times and in all places. We must make every effort to attend the Divine Liturgy.

Here are a few ways you can participate: Come to the Orthros (Matins) service (8:30 am) and Divine Liturgy (9:30 am).

Sing with the congregation! Volunteer to help the readers! We have begun singing the Doxology in English from the Green Divine Liturgy Hymnal-join in the singing (page 1, in Green Book). There is an insert of the hymns of the day. Please join in and sing with us!

Remember, the Divine Liturgy is meant to be a work of the people. Thank you to those who have been reading and chanting during the services.

Holy Communion: Some things to be aware of Our entire lives must be informed and driven by our faith in Jesus Christ. Therefore, when it comes to preparing to receive Holy Communion, it's very important to be aware of how we approach the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.

1.) God knows our hearts; but do we? God commands us to love Him, and to love our neighbor. Why is this mystery called Holy Communion? Are we experiencing the Christian life in a way that allows us to be reconciled with God and others?
2.) We can only receive communion once we have been joined to Jesus Christ and His Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. As Orthodox Christians, this takes places through the sacraments of Baptism, Chrismation, and Holy Communion.
3.) We must be both present and prepared for Holy Communion? With the many opportunities for prayer and fasting, the way of life that we have been given leaves us no choice but to prepare ourselves to encounter our Lord and Savior!
4.) Please be considerate of others. Women please remove lipstick before coming to receive Holy Communion, gum should not be chewed at anytime in church, when you approach the Chalice do so slowly. It is very important that no one bumps the chalice, or does anything to potentially spill the Holy Communion.

If you have ANY questions, please call or email Fr. Jason. Thank You.

Everything should be done in an orderly way...(1st Corinthians 14:40) We should always be respectful of God and others when we are in the House of God. We should make every effort to be in church before the Divine Liturgy begins, and to remain in Church until after the dismissal.

Appropriate clothing should be worn, hands should be prayerfully at our sides or folded, not in our pockets; there should be no food or drink in the Church, when seated, legs should not be crossed. Limit talking and moving around, and try not to create distractions for yourself or for others. If you have any questions, please call or email the Church Office.

Finally, welcome everyone (especially visitors) with a smile, consider offering your seat to them!
