On Saturday, March 8th, our community joined the Orthodox parishes of South Central PA for the Pan-Orthodox Vespers at St. John Chrysostom Antiochian Orthodox Church in York, PA. The homilist was His Grace Bishop John (Abdalah) of the Diocese of Worcester and New England (Antiochian). What a blessing to witness the unity of our Orthodox Christian faith!

On Sunday, March 9th the community of Christ the Saviour celebrated the first Sunday of Great Lent (the Triumph of Orthodoxy) in thanksgiving to God for His many blessings. At the Liturgy the faithful participated in a procession commemorating the restoration of the holy icons. Finally, with the blessing of Archbishop Mark, we administered the oath of office to our newly elected parish council. Glory to God for all things!

This is the Faith of the Apostles.
This is the Faith of the Fathers.
This is the Faith of the Orthodox.
This is the Faith which has established the Universe.
