We will be celebrating Resurrection meal immediately following the Holy Saturday Resurrection Service and Divine Liturgy. This year families are invited to bring a Family Paschal Basket for breaking of the fast. Baskets are usually filled with such things as sausage, bacon, quiche, donuts, etc., your choice and any other treats not eaten during Great Lent. No peanut butter, jelly or beans, please! We will also have our traditional avgolemono soup, cheese and olives provided by our parish.

Contribute Red Eggs - after the Resurrections Service, Fr. Tom will distribute red eggs at the end of the Liturgy. Please plan to bring a dozen red hard boiled eggs to share. (Hint - use brown eggs when dying them!)

Easter Eggs ~ For all the families that have children participating in the Easter Egg Hunt, please remember to bring one dozen filled plastic eggs to church by Holy Saturday and put them in the box labeled Easter Egg Hunt in the Fellowship Hall. If you do not have eggs to fill you can find some in the egg box, please return them to the box after they are filled. If you have any questions please contact Eva Sailor at 206-972-7570

Sign up to help with our Paschal Celebration for April 27th. Just like last year we will be having a potluck brunch and activities following the Agape Service. We need people to help in the planning of this year's celebration. Sign up sheets are posted in the Fellowship Hall, please contact Eva Sailor at 206-972-7570 to lend a hand.
