Blessing of Things Mobile - Sunday, July 20 - 11:15a.m.

On Sunday, July 20th, the Feast of the Prophet Elias, as is the custom, a blessing of "Things That Are Mobile," will take place after the Divine Liturgy. As the Pophet Elias was "transported" by a fiery chariot and fiery horses as if into heaven; we bless all means of transportation (autos, bikes, motocycles, hot air-ballons, etc) as well as Things That "move us" (as water boards, skates, skies,) in recreation.  Asking for protection and receiving the blessing of the Lord, we pray for safety in our travels and for things used in recreation.  The blessing will take place in the churhc parking lot as well as on So. 6th Avenue and Washington Avenue.
