Paschal Greeting from Met. JOSEPH
Ancient Faith Special Order
Our bookstore will be placing an order with Ancient Faith this Saturday. If you would like to order a book or icon from them, now's the time! Check out their selection at store.ancientfaith.com, then reply to this email or contact Fr Jeremy with your order. We will order the books together, and our church will get a percentage, plus you won't have to pay shipping! Deadline: this Friday, May 7.
Holy Week Books
If you borrowed a Holy Week book, please return it when you come to church next. Write your name on a piece of paper and place it in the front of the book, so Fr Jeremy can cross you off his list. Thanks!
Fasting Guidelines
From Pascha until its leave-taking (June 9), we are allowed a fast-free period of celebration. All kinds of food and drink may be consumed throughout this 40-day season, even on Wednesdays and Fridays.
