This Wednesday evening, 29/Dec, HAOC will be hosting an All-Night Vigil.

This will include the Moleben of Thanksgiving (to conclude the Syezd Youth Conference), a Memorial, Vespers, Matins, Hours, and will conclude with the Divine Liturgy. (We estimate that it will conclude around 3-4am). A light fasting breakfast will follow.

Attendance is open to any of the faithful.

(Fasting: Due to the length of the service, Orthodox Christians who wish to commune ought to fast from 7pm).
