Announcements

We will be holding our annual membership and pledge drive in September. If you consider St. Nicholas your parish home, please consider filling out a membership form. In addition, new and continuing members are encouraged to fill out a financial pledge form. This is a good-faith estimate of your monthly contributions for 2012, so that we can generate a relatively accurate budget for the year.

Both forms are available in the literature rack in the narthex of the Church, or can be requested by email from Dn. Nicholas.

******************************************************************

St. Nicholas and the other North Texas Orthodox Churches are participating in the 40 days for life Vigil by praying together outside Dallas's late-term abortion clinic on Wednesday, October 19th. See Father's blog post for details. You can also help by saying a short prayer for the victims of abortion (not only the babies, but also their mothers and those who work in the industry) each day.
