From the Desk

It’s time to go back to Sunday School! Please register your child for the 2012-2013 session and join us on September 16 for another fun-filled year of Faith and fellowship.

Children ages 3 through 14 are encouraged to join us every Sunday to connect with family, faith, and fun in Sunday School. Divine Liturgy begins at 10:00 am and a snack is provided for all students following Holy Communion in the Community Center. Sunday School ends at 12:15 pm in the Education Building.
