Holy Mysteries of Initiation

Holy Mystery of Repentance

All Saints Byzantine Catholic Church Policy of Administering the Holy Mysteries of Initiation (Baptism, Chrismation, and Eucharist) or the Holy Mystery of Crowning (Marriage):

These Holy Mysteries are administered at the parish, and they are only open to registered, active parishioners. This policy is to ensure and preserve the Holy Mysteries of the Church, because they are to provide and care for spiritual needs of those in the parish who have committed themselves by joining and actively participating in the life of the Parish.

Anyone is welcome to register and join the family of All Saints. However, it should not be only because of a desire to receive the Holy Mystery of Crowning (Marriage) or the Holy Mysteries of Incitation. The pastor will determine the length of time on a case by case basis concerning the time of registration and fully participating in the life of the parish. Generally it is approximately one to two years after registering and fully, actively participating in the life of the parish prior to discussing the administering of these two Holy Mysteries. The pastor is always more than willing to sit down with you to answer any questions you may have.
