ANNOUNCEMENTS

 

• Welcome Visitors! We extend a warm welcome to visitors worshiping with us today.  We would like to remind you that Holy Eucharist is reserved for those who have been baptized and/or Chrismated in the Orthodox Church and have prepared themselves to receive the Eucharist.  
• House Blessings - If you wish to have your home and/or business blessed, please contact the Church Office either by phone or e-mail.
• Vasilopita Celebration - Please join us TODAY after Divine Liturgy for a special coffee hour and Vasilopita Silent Auction hosted by our St. Katherine's Philoptochos. A collection tray will be in the narthex at the end of Liturgy, as well as in the community hall, to raise funds for St. Basil's Academy and other Archdiocese & Metropolis Youth and Young Adult programs.  Join us and enjoy plenty of Vasilopita and other treats, and if you like, bid to bring one home!
• Hope/Joy & Goya Meeting - The Hope/Joy (3 y.o. - 6th grade) will meet in the 4th - 5th grade Sunday School classroom, and the Goyans (7th - 12th grade) will meet in the 9th - 12th Sunday School classroom at 11:30 AM on Saturday, January 24th. Each group will watch a short video followed by an activity focused on the first week of Triodion.  Then we will have lunch.  Students should dismiss between 12:45-1:00 PM.  All youth are asked to bring a pair of mittens or a beanie/toboggan to donate for St. Katherine’s Philoptochos clothing drive.
• Clothes Drive for the Homeless - St. Katherine's Philoptochos is sponsoring a Clothes Drive to support the Clothes Closet for the homeless maintained by our neighbor Christ Central Ministries. We are collecting men's and women's coats, sweaters, hats, and gloves. Check your closets for warm clothes you no longer need and help those less fortunate who are living on the streets in our city. Bring your donations to the church anytime until January 31st.  There are collection boxes in the Coffee Hour Room.
• Nursery Volunteers Needed - We are in need of nursery volunteers for 2026. Please use this QR code to sign up; it will also be taped to the nursery door.
• Apokries Celebration - The Daughters of Penelope will be hosting an Apokries Celebration fundraiser this year on Saturday, February 7th, from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM. Tickets can be purchased for $25 during coffee hour beginning today. Kids 12 and under are free.  Thanks in advance for your support!
• IMPORTANT! Child and Fire Safety - For child safety, DO NOT prop open the glass doors at the covered entrance of the Angelo Tsiantis Hellenic Community Center.  If you find them propped open, please close them.  Also, for child safety and for fire safety, parallel parking IS NOT allowed anywhere along the entire length of the curb next to Angelo Tsiantis Hellenic Community Center.  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
• Changes to Coffee Hour Schedule - If you plan a special event that will take place during Coffee Hour or in lieu of Coffee Hour, please contact the Church Office to let us know as soon as possible. Hostesses are scheduled for Coffee Hour every Sunday, and an annual schedule is sent out at the beginning of the year so that they are aware of their assigned date.  If an event occurs which will necessitate a change to the regular Coffee Hour schedule, we would like to notify the hostesses for that particular Sunday so they can plan accordingly.  We appreciate your assistance with this request.
