Announcements:
Holy Week
Clear your evening calendar for Holy Week. (FYI: It’s not this week but the following week.) The liturgies Monday – Thursday are at 7 PM. Friday’s Vespers & Burial Service is at 7 PM. Saturday’s Resurrection Matins are at 5 PM. Easter Sunday Liturgy is 10 AM. Also use your special envelopes to help offset the cost of lilies that will be decorating the church during the Easter season.
Annunciation of the Theotokos
This solemn holyday is Thursday, March 25th. Have you read Luke 1:26-38?
This is not a day of fasting. Therefore do not fast from communal worship at St. Athanasius parish. See you at 6:30 AM office of the 1st hour, noon midday office, and 7 PM vespers with liturgy. Come to 1 or all three.
Workday
Thanks for all who attended the work day on Saturday, March 20. Special thanks go to the Kupec family, Russell family, Brown family, Brenda Linn, John Sosna, Richard Medwig, Max Beaver, and anyone else who attended. Joe, the hands-on supervisor, was almost at a loss of words due the great amount of work that was completed. See everything that is marked off the list. There’s more to do of course but the 14 of us made a nice dent in the cleaning/maintenance list. And we baked 7 pascha breads too. Teamwork in the name of God works. We thank Him for the weather and camaraderie.
Easter Market
The Binford indoor market is scheduled for the next 2 Saturdays from 9 AM until noon. Since the 2nd Saturday is Holy Saturday & the day before Easter we’re not planning to attend that one. If you can help this Saturday anytime from 8 AM (setup) until 12:15 (tear-down) please call the rectory.
