On Sunday, March 11, our parish was honored to host His Beatitude, Tikhon, Archbishop of Washington and Metropolitan of All America and Canada, who is visiting parishes on Long Island during this Great Lent this year. Assisting His Beatitude as he led us in the celebration of the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy were Archdeacon Joseph Matusiak and Subdeacon Mark Federoff, whose assistance was invaluable in the prayerful and graceful service. Following the Liturgy, His Beatitude led the faithful in venerating the Holy Cross, and shared a festive lenten meal with all. Photos of the visit may be viewed here. (Many thanks to our photographer, Edna Fetkowitz.)
