BIRTH IN HEAVEN OF OUR DEAR
ARCHBISHOP GERMAIN OF SAINT-DENIS
This day, Monday August 7 at 1 p.m., feast of Saint Victrice, Bishop of Rouen, the day after the feast of the Transfiguration of our Lord Jesus Christ, our beloved Archbishop Monsignor Germain of Saint-Denis was born in heaven at the hospital of Rochefort (in Charente-Maritime), after having served with zeal, courage and perseverance the Orthodox Catholic Church of France for more than 65 years. Bishop Germain will be taken to Saint-Irénée Cathedral in Paris within the next two days. He will be exhibited in the nave, dressed in his Episcopal ornaments, so that clerics and faithful can show him their affection through prayer.
The funeral liturgy will be celebrated on Sunday August 13 at 11 a.m. (preceded by lauds at 10:30 a.m.), on the feast of Saint Radegonde.
The bishops of the synod, Mgr Benoît de Pau and Mgr Philippe de La Charité sur Loire.

With a sure hope in the Resurrection, we announce that, after some months of increased tiredness, Archbishop Germain of Saint-Denis, Primate of the French Orthodox Church, fell asleep in the Lord Monday 7 August 2023.
He had been primate since his episcopal consecration in 1972 and he continued to lead his flock faithfully and has certainly earned his rest.

SAINT ANTHONY'S FOOD DISTRIBUTION HUB
We try to collect End of Day produce from several Co-Op stores several days a week. This is sorted and repackaged. We then deliver to various hostels, organisations, individuals and familes in need. We don’t ask for a referral and we certainly don’t ask awkward questions. Anybody in need of a little assistance are free to approach us. We will always do everything we can to help.
For households we deliver within the A1079 / A64 area of York usually by bike. Everything is delivered in unbranded handled sandwich bags, so as far as your neighbours know you’ve just ordered a food delivery.
Please just click here if we can help.
If you wish to join our growing number of volunteers (collecting, packaging and/or delivering), please contact the volunteer co-ordinator, or Father Martin.
Food Banks come in many shapes and sized. Some are great for some people, others not so great. So we thought we would do things a bit differently.
Even when you are in a dreadful situation respect and dignity are very important.
