This morning Fr. Peter Paproski of St. John the Baptist Orthodox Church (ACROD) in Stratford, CT (Broadbridge Avenue) was elevated to the status of protopresbeter by Metropolitan Nicholas!!! AXIOS!!!

Fr. Peter and his family have been close to my heart for many years, their guidance during my lengthy journey back to Orthodoxy began before the closure of Holy Trinity!

Photos from the services in which Job (Reader Christopher) was tonsured a reader, and the elevation of Father Peter can be seen on these links from the ACROD website.

Reader Christopher's tonsure

Father Peter's elevation

Axios to both!

In IC XC,
