Announcements
Events Calendar

• The Dormition Fast continues through Tuesday, August 14. The traditional rule is a strict abstinence with mitigations for Saturday & Sunday and the feast of the Transfiguration. The Ruthenian Metropolia has identified this period as a penitential season (Canon 880, § 2). This fast may be observed voluntarily but it is highly recommended for your spiritual & physical wellbeing.
• August 6^th is a solemn Holy Day of the Transfiguration of Our Lord on Mount Tabor. It is our tradition to bless first fruits and vegetables on this feast.
• The first Ancient Healing Service in August is this Wednesday the 8^th. As you know we need to pray for our priest, Fr. Sidney Sidor, who initiated this important ministry in our parish. Encourage your family & friends to come participate in this powerful prayer service.
• Pilgrimage to Our Lady of Mariapoch & Teen Campout August 11^th and 12^th. We are looking for a volunteer to bring a processional cross from the parish to the hierarchical Divine Liturgy on Sunday, Aug, 12, at 3:30 p.m. The theme is “Rejoice, O steadfast foundation of faith.” See the bulletin board in St. Mary’s Hall for more information.

 
Prayer List
Please remember in your daily prayers Fr. Sid who is not able to celebrate Divine Liturgy today. He is expected to be moving from St. Vincent’s Hospital to Hooverwood Indpls Jewish Home on Monday.  Also remember those in the parish, our prayer list and other friends who are in need. May God bestow His loving and healing blessings upon them.
Thank you
We express out gratitude to Archpriest Dennis Hrubiak who is celebrating Divine Liturgy with us from August 4-6 on Saturday, Sunday and the Transfiguration feast day, Monday. Fr. Hrubiak enjoyed his time with us 2 weeks ago. He is being elevated to a mitered archpriest by Bishop John next Sunday at the Shrine of Our Lady of Mariapoch in Burton, Ohio. Congratulations! May God grant him safe travels and many years!
