Feast of the Dormition of the Holy Most Theotokos at the parishes in Richmond Hill and Trenton

On August 27 and 28, these parishes celebrated their Patronal Feast in honor of the Dormition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. At the All-Night Vigil on the 27th, Archbishop Andronik of New York and North America visited the Church of the Holy Assumption in Richmond Hill, where the rector is Mitered Protopriest Sergei Klestov.

The next morning, the Archbishop served the Liturgy at the Church of the Holy Assumption in Trenton, where Hegumen Ignatiy is the rector. After the Divine Liturgy, a hearty luncheon was served through the efforts of the sisterhood.

Most Holy Theotokos save us!

“…in the Dormition you did not forsake the world, O Mother of God…”
