Worship Schedule
Sundays:
Hours 9:00am - Divine Liturgy 9:30am
Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ:
I continue sending out "Daily Spiritual Vitamins" for your spiritual nourishment. These missives include hymns, Scriptural passages, spiritual messages, and other nuggets to nurture us during this time of social isolation. If you would like to receive these emails, please forward your email address to Fr Alex (aagoussetis@gmail.com).
Should you have any spiritual need, including the Sacrament of Confession, please do not hesitate to contact Fr Alex.
As we remain in the Green phase, please read the following information carefully:
- Although the Green phase allows for increased attendance, the worship seating will remain limited to 25 spots (plus priest and chantor) since we must still abide by the social distancing guideline of six feet. Sign-up Genius will remain the vehicle to reserve seats for future liturgies. Contact Fr Alex to sign-up.
- For those unable to attend worship services in person, we have installed the new equipment that allows viewing of our services on our new YouTube channel: Transfiguration Orthodox on YouTube
