Christ is with us!

Many thanks to our members who made the effort to attend the hierarchical Divine Liturgy at Holy Angles this morning, as they welcomed Bishop Artur, and celebrated their patronal feast.

As Bishop François tells us, supporting Holy Angels shows our gratitude for all they've done for St. Jacob's over the years.

It is always a privilege to celebrate the liturgy but today was lovely in that we had a bishop, three priests, and a deacon -- the fullness of the Holy Orders around the Holy Table.  And it's always great to be with our pastor emeritus, Fr James Babcock!  It was funny, walking out of church with Bishop Artur and Fr James Bankston, right at noon.  The bishop turned to Fr James and seemed amazed that the beautiful service, procession, anointings, post-liturgy photos, and wrapping up inside the church took three whole hours -- worth every minute!

Whether we attended the liturgy or not let us raise up Holy Angels parish in prayers of thanksgiving for their hospitality and generosity on this their patronal feast.

In Christ,
Fr Shaun
