<<Αυτή είναι η μοίρα σου Ερντογάν και λαέ της Τουρκίας! Να προσκυνάτε μέσα στον μεγαλύτερο ναό της Ορθοδοξίας! Αυτή είναι η δύναμη του Χριστιανισμού της Ορθοδοξίας της Αγίας Σοφιάς ! Χαίρεστε… τι χαίρεστε? Προδότες του εαυτού σας είστε, της πατρίδας σας, της θρησκείας σας!
Οι αγιογραφίες δεν σβήνουν, δεν αποκρύπτονται!! Θα είναι πάντα εκεί να σας θυμίζουν πόσο αδύναμοι, πόσο άδειοι άνθρωποι είστε, χωρίς τα όπλα και το χρήμα σας! Έτσι Τούρκε … Προσκύνα μέσα στην Αγιά Σοφιά, στον ναό της Ορθοδοξίας…Τόσο αμόρφωτος είσαι που δεν σέβεσαι καν τον δικό σου Θεό… και αυτή είναι η διαφορά μας! Έλληνας σε τζαμί δεν θα προσκυνούσε ούτε με την βία … θα έβρισκε τρόπο να πεθάνει…Ευχαριστούμε Ερντογάν που έδειξες παγκοσμίως ποια είναι η δύναμη της Αγιάς Σοφιάς, της Ορθοδοξίας του Χριστιανισμού!>>
Dear members and parishioners of St. Paul’s Greek Orthodox Church.
Effective June 11, 2020 the Government of Saskatchewan has made a change to allow more people to attend church services. Specifically, churches may have one-third of capacity up to 150 people. For St. Paul’s we can accommodate up to 100 people (including 10 in the choir loft).
Please carefully read the guidelines and precautions below so that we will stay within the Guidelines for Places of Worship established by the Government of Saskatchewan.
To help raise some funds we are having two events over the next few weeks. We will be selling loukoumades and frappe at the Church Parking lot on Saturday, June 20th in the afternoon. We are also holding a Bake Sale on July 3 and 4th (pre-orders only). Please refer to postings on Facebook for more details.
Below is the Church Services Schedule until the end of June.
June 21st – 9:00am- 11:00am Doors open 8:45 am–10:00am
June 24th – 6:30pm-8:00pm Doors open 6:15 pm – 7:30 pm
June 28th – 9:00am- 11:00am Doors open 8:45 am – 10:00 am

On behalf of St. Paul’s Community Council,
Chris Perentes, President
St. Paul’s Greek Orthodox Church will be opening to the faithful again very soon! We will be posting full details in the coming days on Facebook and on the Church website.
Church services will continue to be live streamed for the foreseeable future.
COVID-19 Update – MARCH 17, 2020:
The Community Council together with Fr. Spiridon Vandoros continue to monitor the ongoing pandemic of the COVID-19 virus. The most recent encyclicals from the Archdiocese of Canada ask that those that are 65 years of age and up as well as everyone that is feeling sick or has recently traveled outside of the country should stay home. Furthermore, no more than 50 people will be allowed to attend church services.
Please ensure that this information is communicated to your friends and family members that do not have access to Facebook.
We are currently making arrangements to live stream our services either through YouTube or Facebook. More information will be made available as we have it. We encourage all of the faithful to practice social distancing and limit your exposure to others by staying home and going out only when necessary. We realize how important attending church services is to our members. However, by taking these measures now, we can ensure that we are all healthy and able to attend when the danger has passed.
Church is anywhere that faithful congregate including the home. Let us all pray together with our families for an end to the pandemic.
Chris Perentes, President on behalf of Fr. Spiridon Vandoros and St. Paul’s Community Council
The 30th Biennial Assembly of our Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Canada took place in Vancouver June 28 to July 4, 2019. St. Paul’s Greek Orthodox Community was represented by Fr.
