What we experienced at Seminary (a possible two or three parter)


Please forgive me for not posting in a very long time. So much has happened! Since Holy Pascha, we have had finals week, work week, graduation and I was ordained to the Holy Diaconate.

First, the weeks leading up to graduation:
We had a visit to Syosset, NY and met with His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon and the Administration and Staff of the Orthodox Church of America. We also got to met with a few other graduates from St. Vladimir's.

Our newest little man, Justin Makarios received Holy Baptism June 18. Our wonderful friends Joseph and Svetlana are his Godparents. Fr. Benjamin, to our great joy, baptized Justin.



Towards the end of the month of May, the 26th, was our graduation. I will have another post on that soon!
