New "Orthodox" Parishes in Hermitage
You may have noticed signs for Hermitage's new "Orthodox" parishes (Saint Gregory the Great & Holy Trinity Chapel). Please be aware that these parishes are NOT Orthodox. Both parishes are headed by a man who calls himself Metropolitan Joseph. He is, in fact, not an Orthodox bishop. Orthodox Christians may not receive any of the Holy Sacraments from him or so-called priests with him. When traveling and visiting other parishes, it is very important that you make sure the parish you are visiting is part of a canonical (actually Orthodox) diocese. If you are unsure, please ask Father Spyridon to check for you.
Thank you From Fr. Spyridon & Psa. Sarah
Father Spyridon and Preoteasa Sarah would like to thank everyone who helped make the baby shower happen, as well as everyone who came to support our growing family! We are overjoyed at the love and support we have received. Thank you all very much!
"Thanksgiving" Dinner
Following the Divine Liturgy on November 3rd, our parish will offer an early Thanksgiving dinner. It has become a tradtion in our parish to provide this dinner earlier than the actual date for American Thanksgiving so that we, as a parish family, may share our thanks with each other. Come and join us for some of your favorite Thanksgiving classics! Please see the signup sheet at the candle stand to reserve your plate and sign up to help. Please see either Adela Price or Mary Sankey for more information.
Bible Study
Every Wednesday, our parish has Bible study! We meet at 6 pm in the church for daily vespers, and then start our bible study right after. Please come, and bring your friends! This week we be studying the Gospel of Mark.
