On Thursday 19 August and Friday 20 August we had services for the Great Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord.  All-night vigil with the blessing of wheat, wine, oil and five loaves was served on Thursday evening.  On Friday morning Divine Liturgy was served.  The appointed Prayer for Ukraine was read after the Litany of Fervent Intercession.  Following the Prayer before the Amvon we had the customary blessing of grapes, apples and other fruits.  As in previous years, a quantity of organic Wollombi Valley Honey, a gift to our parish, was blessed and given to those present.
