Practical Information
Church Services :
DDivine Liturgy (Holy Mass): every Sunday and Feast day at 10:00 a.m.
The timetable of daily services depends on the season of the year and the liturgical period. All is invited to attend Church services. Only Orthodox Christians may partake of Eucharistic Communion.
We also celebrate on request services of thanksgiving and intercession for the sick, the departed, etc.
 

Great Feasts :
For fixed feasts (for instance, Christmas), the Monastery utilises the Gregorian calendar (civic and the Church of Rome).
For mobile feasts, such as Pascha, Ascension and Pentecost, the Monastery follows the ancient Julian calendar. These feasts may thus be celebrated at other dates than the civic calendar.

The Monastery's own feasts are :
- Our Lady Source of Life, Saturday after Pascha
- Saint Martin of Tours on November 11.

Visits :
The Monastery is open for visits every day from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon, and from 2:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., except during Church services.
