Sounds like a plan. Be expecting a friend request.

Here are some photos from Saturday's Vespers (Sunday of the Holy Cross) - my church. (I got to decorate the Cross! - how honored am I?) Flowers done, and waiting for Fr. Paul to take in to the Altar  Lying on the Altar Talbe    Lying to the right, is an icon I just bought and had Fr. Paul bless for me.

Wow. Unbelievably beautiful. Almost made my eyes pop out.
Seriously, Liza, do you work for the AP or National Geographic? If you don't, they are missing out.

LOL! Thanks, biro! Definitely not a professional photographer. Just a hobby of mine. The church was soooooo pretty, it was hard to walk out of it. I just wanted to linger there for hours. ...as it was, I closed it down!  The candles were put out, then the lights went off....and I was still lurking. By the time I joined everyone in the hall....there was no more coffee left.

Visitation by our metropolitan on the 2nd Sunday of Great Lent. Our altar server, Kenneth Kulmatycki, was ordained as a subdeacon before the Divine Liturgy.

Yes, that's Father Anthony. Here was here for our Lenten mission, this past Saturday. I love serving with Father. The interior painting and fixing of the dome was completed this past week and the church looks just wonderful. When I get a chance I'll post photos of the work that was done, along with what the interior looked like before.
