His Eminence, Archbishop Daniel arrived for Vespers on Saturday April 20, 2024. Following Vespers, the council and Clergy of the parish took His Eminence out to a local Ukrainian Restaurant for a lovely Lenten meal.
Eighty (80) parishioners gathered in the church to welcome the archpastor of the Diocese. His Eminence, Archbishop Daniel was greeted by the church President, Nancy Tusinac. Following her greeting, the children of the parish presented flowers to the archbishop. Then Archpriest Andrew Bartek, rector, welcomed his Eminence by saying “Where the bishop is, there is Christ.”
At the end of the Divine Liturgy, His Eminence honored the former pastor and now attached, Archpriest, John Steffaro, by giving him a Diocesan Grammata for his 55 years of service. There was a Lenten social following Liturgy where the Archbishop gave a brief history of his life.
