November Calendar Events
November 2026
November 8 – St. Michael and the Angels
Today we celebrate God’s bodiless ministers: the Archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, our guardian angels, the Cherubim and Seraphim, and all the heavenly hosts. Their unseen presence reminds us that the worship of the Church joins heaven and earth, and that we never stand alone in offering praise to God.
November 15 – The Nativity Fast Begins
Today we begin the forty-day journey toward the “Winter Pascha,” the celebration of Christ’s Nativity. This season invites us to make room for the coming of Christ through prayer, fasting, generosity, and renewed attention to one another.
St. Nicholas Orthodox Church is a parish of the Orthodox Church in America in San Anselmo, CA.
