On Palm Sunday, April 21, the pussy willows and palms were blessed by Fr. Matthew Joyner, assisted by Fr. James Mason, Deacon Geoffrey, Altar Servers, and the St. Nicholas Choir, directed by Reader Nicholas Lezinsky. The blessed palms and pussy willows were distributed to the faithful of the congregation, immediately after the blessing, and then the Divine Liturgy was served.
After the Divine Liturgy, a Lenten Luncheon was served in Chernay Fellowship Hall. Delicious food and Christian fellowship were enjoyed by all who attended.
As we start Holy Week, we wait with great anticipation, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior.
