Easter week and Radonitsa
Congratulations to everyone on the Great Feast and we wish you to spend the holidays in spiritual joy!
Vespers on Bright Wednesday, the 16 April, is a very solemn, but short service. After the long and rigorous services of Holy Week, we invite you to this service, full of spiritual joy.
On Tuesday 21 April, we celebrate Radonitsa, and our rector will serve panihidas with the Easter rite from 10 o'clock in the morning at the cemetery.
Unfortunately, many believers, after Passion Week, cannot take time off from work, and come to the cemetery in st. Thomas Sunday (this year – 19 April). Our priest will go to the cemetery immediately after the liturgy.
On Sunday 26 April, the Feast of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women, when we celebrate our Sisterhood, we will host the Vocal Ensemble of Russian Orthodox Australia (VERA). This choir was recently formed, and their first performance will be at our parish! Come celebrate with our sisters and listen to the Women's Choir's debut.
The following services in our temple will be:
On Wednesday 16 April at 6 pm: vespers.
On Saturday 18 April at 6 pm - vigil.
Sunday 19 April at 8:30 am - Liturgy.
On Tuesday 21 April there will be no divine liturgy in the church, but our priest will serve panihidas at the cemetery from 10 o'clock.
