Dear Church Family and Friends,
Fr. Constantine and I are very excited about the events scheduled for our December 13-14 weekend.
On Sunday, December 14, we will have the honor of welcoming His Grace Bishop John, the official representative of the Patriarchate of Moscow and the Hierarch in charge of all the Churches under the Church of Moscow. The Divine Liturgy will be celebrated in Slavonic and will include priests, deacons and an all male Russian Choir from St. Petersburg. The Agape Hour will be hosted in His Grace’s honor and the Choir will sing some traditional Russian Christmas songs. Please see attached flyer.
On Saturday, December 13, we will have our traditional tree lighting ceremony. However, for all our young people and the young at heart, we are bringing Santa’s elves all the way from the North Pole, thanks to Eva and Craig of Red Carpet Kids. Also, we will enjoy holiday music by the Cantabile Youth Chorus of The Hamptons. Please see attached flyer for the tree lighting event.
Also, below you will find links to videos of Red Carpet Kids interviews and events. They are New York City’s ‘In Event Planner Group’ for children. They have been on Good Morning America, The View and all the major TV channels. We are fortunate that Eva and Craig are donating this experience of Christmas joy for our Church Family and Friends.
