40 Daily Liturgies. With God’s help and with the blessing of His Eminence Metropolitan Nicolae, we will serve the annual series of 40 consecutive Divine Liturgies, beginning on October 19 (our fall feast day) and ending on November 27 (Thanksgiving Day). We invite everyone to join us in prayer. The daily Liturgies are especially beneficial for the souls of the departed, for the sick, and for all those who suffer from various problems or need God’s help.
We are looking forward to seeing you.
In Christ, our Lord and Savior,
Abbot of Saint Dumitru Monastery
