On Sunday February 21, at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy we welcomed our newest catechumen (lit. one who is receiving instruction) Jonathan Dunnavent. We pray that God will bless, guide, and instruct him, as he makes this first step in uniting Himself to the Body of Christ, and our parish community.

On Sunday, September 6th, our community welcomed our newest catechumens (literally: those who are receiving instruction) - the Firestine Family (Sean, Jeniffer, Grace, and Evelyn).  We pray that God will grant them a blessed time of study towards reception into the Holy Orthodox Faith; and that they, by His grace, may grow in faith, love and spiritual understanding. God grant them many years! 

On Sunday, September 27th at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy, the community at Christ the Saviour welcomed Jamie Schware and his daughter Mariah into the catechumenate (time of study), towards reception into the Holy Orthodox Faith. We pray that God will inspire them and us to embody the Faith that was "once delivered unto the saints (Jude 1:3)" as we grow  in love for Him and our neighbors.
