Pray That I Pray More: The St Philip’s Prayer Discipline…
… a ministry of the Fellowship of St John the Divine, is designed for Orthodox believers who wish to deepen their spirituality through a regular diet of prayer and study. There are flyers on the table in the Narthex on this prayer rule/group. Pick one up and consider joining with hundreds of other who follow this discipline in the Church. Or, check it out on the web: stphilipsprayerdiscipline.org
AMEN (Antiochian Men Eating at Noon [or around 1:00 PM])
The men of the parish will have lunch and a time of fellowship together on the 1st Tuesday of the month. Our next AMEN Lunch will be at Central Market on Lamar on February 2 at 1:00 PM (close enough to noon!). For more information, contact the Church Office or Fr. David.
When Offering Holy Bread:
• Please limit names to immediate family and those that you especially wish to commemorate.
• Remember to list clergy by rank - Archimandrite, Archpriest, Priest, etc., not "Father," which is only used for personal address.
• Use full Christian names, not nicknames, wherever possible (e.g., “James,” not “Jimmy”).
• Do not list the bishop among your commemorations. He is already commemorated.
• Do not list parish clergy among commemorations. They do not commemorate themselves.
• When offering a Trisagion, please place that name first on your list of departed.
For ongoing current announcements and notice of events see the weekly Bulletin, Service Schedule, and Opportunities to Serve at St. Elias.
