ATTENTION! Holy Communion: The Orthodox Church practices closed Communion – that means only Orthodox Christians who have been baptized/chrismated in the Orthodox Church may receive Holy Communion. Orthodox Christians also prepare themselves by fasting from the night before (not eating or drinking anything – with the exception of prescribed medicines), striving to the keep the fast days of the week, praying and going to Holy Confession as needed. We welcome everyone present to receive the Antidoron – or blessed bread – at the end of the Divine Liturgy.
