Outreach Ministry

The Food Basket, (at the front of the church) provides a way for us to help the poorest of the poor in our neighbourhood. Food collected goes month about to the Dalhousie Food Cupboard and St. Luke’s Lunch Club.

As well Also, used clothing is welcomed for distribution by both organizations (see Vera Theokritoff).

Liturgical Ministry

Your requests for prayers can be placed in Mother Maryam’s Prayer Basket, the small wicker basket on the candle table by the Eccles St. door where Mother Maryam will pick them up. Pencil & paper are in the basket.

The current Intercession & Anniversaries List is attached to the bulletin weekly. To add to or correct the list you may contact Dn Alexander or call the church office.

To add non-parish family or friends on a particular Sunday please speak to one of the priests or deacons before the liturgy.

Education Ministry

The Library is open every Sunday after the Divine Liturgy or any other day of the week by request.

We are actively looking for Orthodox book donations in any language. Questions regarding the Library should be addressed to Deacon Alexander, or Father James, Vera Theokritoff or Jane Szepesi, whoever happens to be present at that time.
