Ordination Watch Party

The peace and love of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ be with you all.

Ordination Watch Party tonight at 9:30 pm! 

As you all know Mr. Kirolous Makarious’ ordination is this Saturday, July 6th, in Egypt. Due to the time difference, the ordination liturgy will begin at 11 pm (EST) TONIGHT with the expectation of the actual ordination to begin around 1 am (EST). The church is planning on having a watch party this tonight following the normal Friday night schedule, which concludes around 9:30 pm. 

We will then have:

– Tasbeha roughly from 9:30/10 – 12 am

– Games and fellowship roughly from 12 – 1/1:30 

– And Ordination live stream starting around 1/1:30

Any incoming high school freshmen and younger need to have their own parent present the entire time. Sophomore – seniors don’t need a parent, but their parents need to sign waiver for them to stay and they need their ride to be present if they’re not driving themselves at the end of the ordination. NO EXCEPTIONS. 

NOTE:  Live stream link to be send out as soon as liturgy begins. 

Be safe in the Lord.
