This Week...
April 12, 2025
As we head towards Pascha we should be sure to have our Confession heard if we wish to participate in the Holy Eucharist. OCA policy is once every 4 weeks. Please try to have your Confession done before Holy Wednesday, please do not wait until Holy Thursday, Friday or Saturday.
The next Class/Bible study will be Weds April 30th at 6pm in the Hall.
If you would like to bring red eggs to church on Pascha please see Judy Bushko so there is an accurate count.
If you wish to donate towards Pascha flowers, please mark that on your envelope or check.
Donation slips for the Pascha Cards are on the table in the hall.
A potluck luncheon will be held after Vespers on Pascha. Please see Mat. Elizabeth Pfeiffer to sign up to bring an item or if you would like to volunteer to help with the potluck.
For those who will attend Bright Monday services there will be a potluck coffee hour after the Liturgy/Procession.
Collections for Project Mexico are usually on the 1st Sunday of the month,but there was no collection last week so there will be a collection tomorrow Sunday April 13th.
Here is the website for the AAC which will be held here in Phoenix in July. https://www.oca.org/aac Parents, if you wish to have your child participate in the youth activities, you must register as an Observer and be onsite.
Volunteers will be needed after Divine Liturgy on Lazarus Saturday April 12th to tie the palms and pussy willows together for the Vespers of Palm Sunday.
We should always remember to tithe, as this is very important to keep the church running, and it is also an offering to God. For the month of March our income was more than our expenses by $4,035. Which helps us prepare for the $8000. Insurance bill in May.
Whoever does not want to know the will of God is mentally walking a path next to a cliff, and easily falls with any wind. If he is praised, he is proud. If he is rebuked he is angry. If he eats pleasant food, he is drawn into bodily passions. When he suffers he weeps. When he knows something, he wants to show that he knows. When he doesn't understand, he pretends to understand. When he is rich he puts on airs. When he is poor, he is a hypocrite. When he is full, he is bold. When he fasts he is vainglorious. When he is denounced he loves to argue, while he looks on those who forgive him as fools. St. Mark the Ascetic
