GREAT NEWS! ГАРНІ НОВИНИ!
Beginning Monday March 15th We will welcome more worshippers in for services (approx. 50pp) for the first time in 4 months. Following the protocols we practiced this summer and guidelines from the department of health. This is great timing for the first week of Great Lent with many (15) services to choose from. See the schedule below and in the bulletin.  No need to call ahead. If you haven't been to church in a while and are healthy- please come. It's easy to keep physical distance and face coverings (nose and mouth) are mandatory for ages 10+
Protocols for next weekend and onward will be posted in the bulletin and website. 

Починаючи з понеділка, 15 березня, ми будемо приймати більше людей до Богослужіння. Дотримуючись протоколів, які ми практикували цього літа, та рекомендацій департаменту охорони здоров’я.  Це чудовий час для першого тижня Великого посту, коли заплановано багато (15) церковних служб. Дивіться графік нижче та у бюлетені. Не потрібно дзвонити вперед. Якщо ви давно не були в церкві і здорові - будь ласка, приходьте. Легко дотримуватися фізичної відстані, а покриття обличчя (ніс і рот) є обов’язковими для віку 10+
Протоколи на наступні вихідні та надалі будуть розміщені в бюлетені та на веб-сайті.

Dear Parishioners and Friends,

Attached, is an article with suggestions on preparing your family (your Domestic Church) for Great Lent. Also included are links to a few retreats happening this week. Take a look! 

With the first day of the fast just days away, it is important to have a conversation with the family (or with whoever shares yur home) on how you will handle fasting and change routine to enter the lenten season prepared for its challenges.  Streamed services throughout the weeks of lent offer you an opportunity to “attend” and pray services that can be difficult to come to personally due to times of services and current circumstances. Let even the youngest children listen while they play and become familiar with the beautiful melodies unique to these lenten services.

If you would like to attend a service in person:
Please phone or email the parish office to register for personal attendance at any lenten service. We will accommodate as many people as restrictions permit inside.  As warm weather moves in,overflow attendance in the courtyard is possible. Services are broadcast outside.

FROM THE PARISH COUNCIL
   
Thank you to all who participated in last week’s pleasant and productive AGM.  

One question was raised which needs your attention:
Question from John Stranart: did we have an AGM last year? If not, how is that being dealt with?
Answer: Our AGM meeting was initially scheduled for February 23, 2020. However, due to the continued delays with the completion of the financial report, then the COVID lockdown the report was never sent and meeting was not held. To complete our records for 2019, please look at the comparison page of the
2020 Financial report and review the 2019 financial report printed there.  

Should you have any questions pertaining to matters for the year 2019 please do not hesitate to email either Father Roman or any member of the Parish Council through the parish office by March 7th.  Your question will be answered in the next parish bulletin and retained for our records.  Thank you!
