Parish Dinners: Because of scheduling limitations at Rochester College, we will have two parish dinners in February. The regular February dinner will be on February 10th. The dinner that would normally be held in March will be on Sunday, February 24th.
Looking ahead: Great Lent begins on Monday, March 11th. The Annunciation is on Sunday, April 7th. (We will have our parish dinner on Annunciation instead of Palm Sunday.) Palm Sunday is on April 21st and Pascha on April 28th (ns).
