Altar Servers
This young man started as an altar boy when he was 3-years-old. He is 7 now, and he does a wonderful job!
In the Eastern Orthodox Church, altar servers assist the higher clergy during services. They might carry the cross, candles or liturgical fans in processions and entrances.
Bible Study Group
We began a study group to explore questions and thoughts about the Bible, and Orthodox life in general towards the end of 2023, and it is very well-attended and helpful. Our group is open to all as we explore what is on our minds and hearts. We meet every other Wednesday at the Cantonis Parish Center from 6:00-8:00 PM. For meeting date information, click Schedule of Services
Music Ministries
Music plays an integral role in the liturgical life of the Orthodox Church. We are actively seeking voices to join in. Learn more about the mixed voice choir for Divine Liturgy or the Byzantine Choir for Vespers, Orthros, and other services. Learn More »
Youth Ministry
We have had the provledge of seeing young people in our Parish grow into principled young adults, and we welcome young families and children. As our youth attendance grows, we will resume Youth Services.
We believe that the Goal of Orthodox Christian Youth Ministry is the integration of each young person fully into the total life of the Church. With the growth of our younger membership, we hope to develop more Youth activities. We believe that Orthodox Christians must commit themselves to living the Orthodox Faith daily. Worship, Witness, Service and Fellowship are the natural expressions of that commitment. Learn More »

Help is Always Appreciated!
We believe that each Parishioner has something to contribute in terms of time and talent. Our Parish leaders direct activities, but the work must be shared. Small efforts create large results without overburdening any one person. Bring your new ideas and share your talents at whatever level is possible. That is the key to our success with our Ministries, our community activities, and the cohesion of our Church Parishioners. We share the responsibilities, and we pray for God's grace to touch us all.
