Sunday Divine Liturgy on Regular Sundays is at 10am   Divine Liturgy is often preceded by the office of confession or by memorials for departed faithful. If you arrive and there is already something going on, that is what is happening. Sometimes these memorials will be in various different languages.  But Liturgy is in English primarily (but in Paschaltide in various languages with still English as the base).  

Sermons and classes can be found on our Youtube channel ProtectionDover. 

More catechetical information, in both video and written form, can be found on our educational website www.orthodoxchristianed.org. 

Confessions are done 45 minutes before eucharistic liturgies (i.e. before mornng, afternoon or evening liturgies), and after any evening service that is not eucharistic (except for Holy Week and Resurrection Bright week, morning or evening, in which we have already squared ourselves with God during Great Lent to focus on only on participating in His life-giving passion and resurection (and not on our personal needs which as good Christians, we have taken care of ahead of time).  .
