Cleaning Day and Palm Sunday 2026

The rain couldn’t dampen our spirits this Lazarus Saturday!
We had a record turnout to set up the tent and help make our church and grounds look their best.

Here are a few pictures, with all generations helping:

2023 cleaning day and Palm Sunday

As is the tradition at Saint Innocent, we gathered on April 8, on the morning of Lazarus Saturday, to set up the tent, clean the church, garden, and do all beautifications tasks needed.
Many parishioners came and worked together to make our parish church and grounds even more beautiful.
Here are a few pictures to give you an idea, but the best is of course for you to come and see!

The next day, on Sunday April 9, we celebrated the Palm Sunday Divine Liturgy.

And we enjoyed our tent for the first time this season for our meal afterward:
