February 21 marks the beginning of the Triodion Triodion is a liturgical book and a period of the Church year which marks pre-Easter time. It precedes the Pente...costarion period and it comes after the longer period of the Octoechos. Thus, Triodion lasts from the Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee and until the Great and Holy Saturday (the one preceding Easter): it has 10 weeks in total. This is a time when Christian Orthodox all over the world are called to prepare spiritually to meet the glorious feast of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. See more

Our March schedule is now available. We pray that you all have a blessed Triodion!

Tridion starts this coming Sunday! Our journey to Pascha is clear ahead!

Just a reminder that this coming Sunday we will have an artoklasia in honour of St Philothei of Athens, patroness of the Ladies' Philoptochos Society in Canada. Saint Philothei was born in Athens in 1522 to an illustrious family. Against her will, she was married to a man who proved to be most cruel. When he died three years later, the Saint took up the monastic life and established a convent, in which she became a true mother to her disciples. Many women enslaved and abused ...by the Turks also ran to her for refuge. Because of this, the Turkish rulers became enraged and came to her convent, dragged her by force out of the church, and beat her cruelly. After a few days, she reposed, giving thanks to God for all things. This came to pass in the year 1589. She was renowned for her almsgiving, and with Saints Hierotheus and Dionysius the Areopagite is considered a patron of the city of Athens. https://youtu.be/S0hzlHpsgdc

Blessed feast to those who celebrate today! Please take the time to read medical advice from the heavenly surgeon, St Luke of Simferopol! (Reminder: There is no fasting today!) https://youtu.be/CfKyKA8FtXQ

Saint Anastasia, the Deliverer from Spells and Potions Anastasia, who was from Rome, was a most comely, wealthy, and virtuous maiden, the daughter of Praepextat...us and Fausta. It was her mother who instructed her in the Faith of Christ. The Saint was joined to a man named Publius Patricius, who was prodigal in life and impious in disposition, but she was widowed after a short time. Henceforth, she went about secretly to the dwellings of the poor and the prisons where the Martyrs of Christ were, and brought them whatever was needed for their daily subsistence. She washed their wounds and loosed them from their fetters, and consoled them in their anguish. Also, because the Saint, through her intercessions, has healed many from the ill effects of spells, potions, poisons, and other harmful substances, she has received the name "Deliverer from Potions." Since the fame of her deeds had spread about, she was arrested by Diocletian's minions, and after enduring many torments she was put to death by fire in the year 290. See more
