Weekly Educational Offering  
18/5/16, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory
We present here a short educational offering for both children and adults. Parents are asked to review the children’s portion with their children. It is very important for us to attend the Divine Services on Sundays and whenever else we are able, but in addition it is our spiritual responsibility to educate ourselves and our families in the faith. It is our hope that this mid-week offering will be an aid in this regard. Please contact Fr. Gregory with questions or suggestions.

For Adults: the explanation of the Sunday gospel reading from Blessed Theophylact:

For Children – an activity based on last Sunday's Gospel reading for various ages:

Children's Pascha Thank You! 
17/5/16, 06:00 PM
Posted by Fr. Gregory
Thank you to all who worked so hard to make our Children's Pascha on Sunday, May 15 a great success! It was a lovely winter day despite the fact that it was May, but the kids made the best of it and fought through the freezing weather in search of eggs on the egg hunt. The older kids prepared a really wonderful play about the Lord's Resurrection (you can see that in full on our You Tube Channel if you missed it), and we topped the day off with a visit to the Zap Zone sponsored by the Detroit Express newspaper (and we thank them very much for their generosity!). Wow – what a day! Many people worked hard to make this day a success and we thank them all – may the Lord reward you in this life and the next for your support of His Holy Church!

The pilgrimage is for young people 8 years old and older (we have 12 spots available) and parents (we have 6 spots available).

Festival is Coming – Time to Solicit Sponsors 
16/5/16, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory
You have a dentist. You have a doctor. You probably have a hair dresser or barber. You might have a dog groomer or vet. You have people that you do business with. Those people need to be asked to sponsor the St. Vladimir's Festival so that thousands of people are exposed to their business in a positive way. And those businesses need to be asked to sponsor by you. Yes you. The person that spends money at their business every month, ever week, sometimes every day. And they will be HAPPY to sponsor our festival if you ask them. If you do not ask they are unlikely to hand you a check and ask you to give it to the Festival. So please ask – do not be shy – these folks appreciate your business and they know you. They don't know Fr. Gregory. They don't know Nathan. They don't know other people in our parish – they know YOU! Please leverage that relationship to do them a favor – spending a few hundred dollars to help our festival gives them exposure to thousands of happy people that will spend money at their business in the future. This only works if everyone pitches in and asks. And if we do – we will be in great shape! Help us be in great shape and ask your favorite businesses to sponsor our festival today!

9-12 Year Old and Teen Youth Groups Joint Activity May 15 
13/5/16, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory
Our 9-12 year old and Teen youth groups will have a joint activity on May 15 – Zap Zone! Yes – perhaps shooting each other right after celebrating the Lord's Resurrection is not the most appropriate thing to do, but since this is for fun and no one is to be hurt we're going to do it! The best part: you'll get to shoot Fr. Gregory and you won't even have to go to Confession afterwards for doing it! And it is all FREE! Join us to visiting the sign up here:

Thank you to all who contributed so generously to our collection on Sunday, May 8 for the rebuilding of the Serbian St. Sava Cathedral which burned down on Pascha! We collected just about $750 – very close to our goal of $1,000. Way to go St. Vladimirians! If you were unable to be with us on Sunday but would like to make a donation in this regard please contact our Starosta, Nathan Longan, or our Treasurer, Marina Edwards.

Men in the Kitchen May 15 
11/5/16, 06:00 PM
Posted by Fr. Gregory
According to our established parish tradition the men of the parish will take over all kitchen duties on Sunday, May 15 – the Sunday of the Myrrh-Bearing Women. As evidenced by previous such celebrations, our men do not understand the words “light lunch”, so expect the usual plethora of very tasty food. Please plan to stay with us after Liturgy this coming Sunday to celebrate our hard-working sisters and to enjoy the largess of our brothers' culinary output!
