On April 27, the 2nd Sunday of Pascha, dedicated to the Holy Apostle Thomas, His Grace Luke, Bishop of Syracuse and monastery abbot, celebrated Divine Liturgy in Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, NY.

After the Great Entrance, His Grace ordained Deacon Vyacheslav Purdik, who will serve in the Canadian Diocese.

May God help the newly ordained Priest Vyacheslav to serve the Holy Church with zeal and piety!
