Churching for infant Elizabeth Riley
Prior to the Divine Liturgy on Sunday June 9th 2024, the churching ceremony was held for infant Elizabeth Briggs Riley, daughter of Katie and Madison Riley. Churching is a service of thanksgiving and blessing of the mother and her child when they return to the church after childbirth. It is reminiscent of the Old Testament ceremony of purification (Lev. 12: 2-8) and the presentation of Jesus at the Temple (Luke 2: 22-29). Welcome to our parish Elizabeth!
