Earlier this month, our volunteer team returned to the Yale Navigation Center to serve dinner to neighbors experiencing homelessness in our community. 💙

We were especially grateful to be joined by Steven Christoforou, Executive Director of FOCUS NORTH AMERICA, along with volunteers from various parishes across Orange County.

What made the evening especially meaningful was the connection shared between volunteers and residents, many of whom expressed how much it means to be served with genuine kindness, conversation, and dignity.

We’re grateful to everyone who helps make this monthly outreach possible and look forward to continuing to serve our neighbors with love and compassion! ☦️

We're so grateful for the Sunday School children of St. Mark Church in Irvine, who are such faithful supporters of our Pantry! 🙌

Under the leadership of Khouria Miray Katrib, Sunday school students participate in the One Can Food Program, bringing a can of food with them to church every week. At the end of each month, these offerings are delivered to the FOCUS Orange County warehouse in Santa Ana, helping care for families in need.

From an early age, these children are learning to put love for their neighbor into action—planting seeds of compassion that will remain with them for a lifetime. ❤

This Holy Week, we are invited to witness the fullness of Christ’s love—a love given freely for the life of the world.

We invite you to enter deeply into these sacred services and refocus your heart on the mystery of His Passion.

"Enable us to see the Holy Week of Your Passion, that we may glorify Your mighty work, Your wonderful plan of salvation for us, singing with one heart and one voice: 'O Lord, glory to you!'" (Sixth Friday Vespers) ☦

We will be stepping away from social media this week and look forward to proclaiming, “Christ is Risen!” with you on Pascha.

Wishing you a blessed and prayerful Holy Week.

“Come, brethren, and before the end with pure hearts let us all draw near to the compassionate God. Casting aside the cares of this life, let us take thought for our souls. Through abstinence let us reject with loathing the pleasures of food, and let us busy ourselves with acts of compassion; for in this way, as it is written, some have entertained angels unaware. By providing for the needy, let us feed Him who has fed us with His own flesh. Let us clothe ourselves in Him who clothes Himself in light as in a garment..." (The Lenten Triodion: Thursday of the Sixth Week of Great Lent) ☦
