Blessing of the Waters

For Theophany, January 6, 2022, Father Milutin blessed waters in the church and on Saturday, January 8, 2022, a glorious and sunny day we gathered at Rio Del Mar State Beach to bless the ocean and all of creation. The Cross was tossed into the water and swimmer Jacob Auldridge from Saints Peter and Paul in Ben Lomond was the winner. Our sister parish clergy and our Orthodox Christian families attended for the 7th annual event. Many blessings to all. Amin!
