The Dormition Fast
August 1-14
The Dormition Fast has begun! This is a special period of preparation as we await the great feast of the Dormition (Falling Asleep) of the Most Holy Theotokos on August 15. May we keep the fast with joy!
​
The Dormition Fast, after Great Lent, is the most rigorous of the four seasonal fasts. We abstain from flesh meats (beef, chicken, pork, etc.), dairy products, fish, wine and oil while also reducing our intake so that we have both time and resources to pray more, give alms and serve others who need us.

OUR FAITH COMMUNITY
Our parish is part of the ancient Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch where St. Luke in the Book of Acts tells us the believers were called “Christians” for the first time (Acts 11:26).
