Thank You from the Erikssons Dear Family of St. Peter the Aleut Orthodox Church: Barbara and I wish to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the love and concern that you have expressed to us in so many ways in these recent months. We also wish to thank all those, both named and nameless, who gave to us financial gifts at this time. It has touched us deeply and is greatly appreciated. As we enter this New Year and approach the Feast of the Baptism in Jordan of our Lord Jesus Christ, may God richly protect and keep each and every one of you and grant to you, health, prosperity, and every good thing. With love in Christ, Fr. Phillip and Barbara Eriksson
Music/Choir Practice We will be having choir practices after Wednesday Vespers and Sunday Divine Liturgy. Each week, practices will offer an opportunity to become more comfortable with our current music as well as opportunities to become familiar with new musical arrangements. Whether you wish to stand in the choir during service or just wish to gain more confidence in your singing, you are welcome.
Welcome Olga! Everyone is invited to Deron and Stacy’s house next Sunday from 4:00 to 6:00 to welcome Olga and her daughters.
