Monastery Slava · 21 September

The Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos, the monastery's patronal feast. The one service that does not begin at nine.
Although officially in the Eastern time zone, the Monastery's schedule is following the Central time zone due to its proximity to the Chicago Metropolitan area.
Holy Liturgies are served every Sunday and on major church holidays starting at 9 am Central time.
The only exception is the Slava celebration (September 21) when the Liturgy starts at 10 am Central time.
Prayers for the health and salvation of the living, as well as for the repose of the dead, are offered in the private prayers of the sisters every day, and during every Liturgy.
