ROCOR Western Rite

Brethren
We rejoice in the empty tomb !
He is not here, He has risen !

I wish you all the Paschal blessings and joy our Risen Lord has given us- for He is good, and loves mankind.

I was remiss in my Lenten journey to begin to prepare for and solicit your prayers and patronage for our St Gabriel annual summer camp.

This is such a worthwhile and valuable ministry of our Western Rite Communities. As always, attendees pay no tuition or fees - the generosity of our parishes and faithful have always covered the costs.

Please make announcements in church and bulletins etc for campers, staff and prayers and donations.

Suggested donation to cover a single camper is $180 for the week
