SVIACHENE: We sincerely thank all who attended our Sviachene Dinner last Sunday. It was a lovely affair and everyone seemed to enjoy the food. Thanks to all the women and men who were such a big help in the preparation and serving of the food and to those who donated desserts, food and monetary gifts. For all those who helped in any way may God bless you with good health & happiness.
PIGGIE (HALUPKI) DINNER: The Piggie Dinner that was planned for June 7th is cancelled due to the Blessing and Dedication of the SS Peter & Paul Stained Glass Icon event on June 29th.

Moleben: Moleben to the Blessed Virgin Mary is a modification of the ancient Paraklys, a special church function composed of tropars, kondaks and irmoses.
Moleben to the Blessed Virgin originated at the beginning of the 20th century in Western Ukraine and became a beloved church function in honor of the Mother of God. It is used every Wednesday and throughout the whole month of May.
Join in prayer each Wednesday in your church for this beautiful service.
