Please join us for the annual commemoration of St. George the Great Martyr at St. Vladimir's! This year St. George falls during Bright Week, so the celebration will be quite Paschal in character. But St. George will not be forgotten by any means! Liturgy at 8:00 a.m. Please find the life of St. George below.

As is our usual practice we will visit the graves of our friends and loved ones on Thomas Sunday (May 8) after the parish meal (we should arrive at Forest Hill Cemetery about 2:30 p.m.). For those graves we cannot visit on Thomas Sunday we will visit after the Liturgy on Radonitsa (May 10). On that day we will serve Liturgy at 8:00 a.m. followed by the first Pannykhida after Pascha. Radonitsa will also be the rain date for Thomas Sunday if the weather is particularly bad that day.

Please find the Paschal Epistle of His Eminence, Metropolitan Hilarion of Eastern America & New York, First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, below.

Christ is Risen!
