Divine Liturgy begins slightly after 10 a.m., preceded by Matins at 8:50 a.m. As you enter the church narthex, there are candles to be purchased and lighted if you wish to offer a prayer. Dress appropriately; head coverings are not required. Ushers will advise guests where to sit. Follow the example of others by standing, sitting, or kneeling. The congregation stands often during the service, but remaining seated is permissible if necessary. Do not partake of Holy Communion; however, sacred bread will be offered to guests and others by the priest at the end of the Liturgy. Incense is burned during the liturgy. Photography is permitted only after the service. A fellowship hour follows. Copies of the Liturgy in Greek and English are available.
