Today we celebrated the Divine Liturgy of Saint Basil the Great, though with only four of our people according to the instructions of our bishop. Nevertheless, what a joy many of us felt both in the temple and at home listening to an audio streaming of it. A section of the Liturgy was filmed that included the scripture readings, the homily, and the litanies for the catechumens and the faithful (as well as a prayer for deliverance from the Coronavirus). However, the video has so far overwhelmed our uploading capacity, and so for now we will have to wait before it can be posted.

In the meantime, the photos above and below show the paten at the proskomedia. Above is how it looked before commemorations of parishioners and their loved ones were made, and below after that.
