Ann Arbor Parish to Build IOCC School Kits 8/26/17 - ALL WELCOME! 
1/8/17, 12:00 PM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

International Orthodox Christian Charities School Kits make it possible for children to attend school who otherwise would not have that opportunity. In most countries school supplies are NOT provided by the school, and that is what these kits are all about! On Sunday, August 20, after the Divine Liturgy in Ann Arbor a collection to help pay for the kits will take place. If you would like to help, but cannot be present, please email treasurer@stvladimiraami.org

On Saturday, August 26 at 4:00 p.m. the kits will be built at the Ann Arbor parish. Please join us! Young people are especially encouraged to participate!

Holy Fire Arrives in the Deanery 4/27/17

Posted by Fr. Gregory

The Holy Fire from Jerusalem, the same Holy Fire that descends on the Holy Sepulcher there every Holy Saturday, will reach the Michigan Deanery at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 27. Our St. Vladimir parish will receive the flame, and after lighting all the lamps in the parish church, a Thanksgiving Moleben will be held. Following the moleben the faithful will have the opportunity to venerate the icons of the Lord's Resurrection and of Thomas Sunday, and access the flame to bring home for themselves if this is desired. It is important that those who wish to bring the Fire home bring a suitably safe lantern or other vessel in which to transport the flame in their vehicles. All are welcome.
