On Wednesday evening, June 29, 2022, Father John Takahashi greeted a group of students led by our seminarian Ioan Gheorghiu from Holy Cross/Hellenic College in Brookline, MA. They requested a tour of Prophet Elias while they were in Santa Cruz. The students are attending the CrossRoad Summer Institute in San Francisco. They venerated all the icons in our church and graciously chanted the Paraklesis with us. Their angelic voices could be heard loud and clear. Blessed are we to have so many young adults faithful to Orthodoxy with us. Amin!
