Other Pastoral Services

In the course of the year, The Church of the Holy Nativity celebrates calendar holidays or unique occasions by gathering our parish together to recognize these special days in prayer! Below is a list of those we have consistently celebrated in the course of the year. We also have special individual or family pastoral services for the birth of new child (or more!), the unity of two people in marriage and the loss of a loved one. Please contact our church office to ask any questions or schedule a meeting to discuss a special occasion in your family, 781.335.2030 with Father Harry, hbirkenhed@aol.com.
