Etiquette
People often ask what is proper "behavior" in Church.
These are some gentle reminders about Church etiquette.
Entering the main church from the Narthex: There are certain
times during the Liturgy when you should not enter the Church. You
may enter the Church at most times except when the Gospel is read,
when the Priest takes the Communion around the Church (Great Entrance).
The Vigil Lights: As a general rule, vigil lights
should not be brought to the front of the Church during the reading
of the Gospel, the great entrance and when the priest preaches.
Receiving Holy Communion: Women should remove
lipstick prior to receiving communion. There should be no talking
as you approach the Priest and the Board's directions for receiving
Holy Communion should be followed. Children first receive communion.
Other things to remember...
1. Do not chew gum in Church
2. Do not cross legs
3. Turn off all cell phones, beepers and pages
