About this event
After the liturgy and Blessing of Jordan Water, the community continued the day with a festive picnic at Lake Alexander. The format was intentionally open and social, with everyone invited to bring a dish to share.
Why it mattered
Combining liturgy with an outdoor picnic creates a fuller community rhythm: worship first, then time to talk, reconnect, and welcome newcomers in a more relaxed setting.
What people could expect
- Divine Liturgy and water blessing
- A transition from church service to community picnic
- A potluck-style format with shared food
