No Compline and Study this Thursday - Great Vespers on this Saturday

Just to draw your attention to a couple of adjustments to our calendar of services: There will be no Compline and Study this Thursday, November 23rd - Little Compline and our study will resume the following week at Peter and Judy's house, as usual. Great Vespers will be on this Saturday, November 25th (and the following week), at Dunbar Lutheran, as usual, but you should note that it will not be served at Dunbar Lutheran on Saturday, December 10th, as I will be filling in for Fr. Lawrence at St. Herman's that weekend.

Celebration of the Entrance of the Theotokos - This Monday!

Due to unanticipated scheduling conflicts, St. John's will not be celebrating the Feast of the Entrance this Tuesday evening, as planned, but rather on Monday evening (tomorrow!) instead. The service will be a Vesperal Liturgy held at Dunbar Lutheran at 7pm, so those planning to receive communion should come fasting from at least noon onwards.

First Annual BC Deanery Men's Hockey Challenge

On Monday, November 13th, the first annual BC Deanery men's (floor) hockey challenge will take place in Surrey (site TBA).
