On Tuesday, December 17, the feast of Holy Great Martyr Barbara and the 50th birthday of His Eminence Nicholas, Metropolitan of Eastern America & New York, the First Hierarch’s father, Alexander N. Olhovsky, reposed in the Lord.
His Eminence learned of the repose of his father while at Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, NY, as he was preparing to celebrate Divine Liturgy. By God’s grace, the First Hierarch was the first to commemorate his late father during the Proskomedia.
Memory Eternal and the Kingdom of Heaven to the servant of God Alexander, and Many Years to Metropolitan Nicholas!
