BAPTISM AT ST. JOHN'S............

Feb 1, 2025

Baptism doesn’t simply signify the child’s acceptance into the Church but also their enlistment in the army of the faithful. Throughout the ceremony, liturgical prayers are offered, which serve as profound invocations of divine grace upon the child. These incantations reinforce the notion that baptism is a communal affair involving the entire Church body, a unified plea to God to watch over the newest member of the Christian family.

Memorial Saturday - Panikhida Followed by Great Vespers 5:00 PM

With the Saints give rest, O Christ, to the soul of Thy servant, where sickness and sorrow are no more, neither sighing, but life everlasting.  Whither we mortals shall go, making our funeral dirge the hynn:     Alleluia.  Memory Eternal!
