Very nice, Dave. Missed seeing that post previously. It's been a while now since we've added any new sites here. Just discovered the site of Ss Cyril & Methodius in Girard and Ss Peter & Paul in Erie. Very nicely done, very clean, uncluttered, with a lot of very factual, nicely explained material and some great slideshows. It can be seen hereMany years, Neil

Gabriel Pulido, webmaster of Our Lady of the Sign Byzantine Church in Coconut Creek, FL, and Father Michael (Kane), pastor of the parish, have drawn my attention to the parish's brand-new website. It's modeled in several respects on the parish's earlier one, but with the addition of some photos and new text. It's very nice and includes some very readable educational material for visitors. Many years, Neil

St. John's Episcopal Church in Detroit, MI has a heavenly choir. St. John's choir has been called upon in times past by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit to sing the choral parts at a Solemn High Tridentine Mass. Growing up in Detroit, I passed by St. John's many times and I remember hearing the choir singing.

Four parishes - three websites. Three of the parishes have a common origin and one of them - Ss Peter & Paul - is the former home parish of our brother, Ed/Erie Byz. Ss Peter & Paul Byzantine (Erie, PA) and Ss Cyril & Methodius Byzantine (Girard, PA)(Ss Cyril & Methodius was originally established as a mission of Ss Peter & Paul in 1939 and erected as a parish in 1955) (Note that there are actually 3 aspects to the above (Erie Byzantines) site - the shared component accessed from the web address above, and two specific components, each of which is particular to one of the two sister parishes. The latter are accessed via links at the left and right extremes of the header banner on the main page. My only complaint with the site is that I wish these links were slightly more prominent or were repeated in the selection menu on the main page - it's a bit too easy to miss them.) and St Nicholas Orthodox (ACROD) (Erie, PA)(St Nicholas was founded by faithful of Ss Peter & Paul in 1938 as a consequence of the unfortunate events of the time) and Church of the Nativity Russian Orthodox Old Rite (Popovotsi) (ROCOR) (Erie, PA) These are very nicely done sites with a lot of excellent educational material on each. Many years, Neil

Has anybody listed Annunciation of the Mother of God Byzantine Catholic Parish, Homer Glen, Illinois? http://www.byzantinecatholic.com/They have a photo gallery worth looking at, as well as a playlist of music.

seraphim,
To be honest, 8 pages later, I can't remember - altho it seems likely to me that someone must have, given that we have several members from the parish, including Father Thomas, and Annunciation has been an inspiration to many. Regardless, it's certainly worth posting again. Thank you.
Many years,
Neil

Christ the Savior Orthodox Church (OCA)is a mission parish down in Dagsboro, DE, near the Delaware beaches and Ocean City, MD. Fr John maintains a really excellent website: http://www.orthodoxdelmarva.org/But I think he's one of the masterminds behind orthodoxyinamerica.org Another Eastern Shore website that's not so good (because poor me designed it--I'm a fan of minimalist web design, especially for something like this: info, please!) is for Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Mission parish in Whaleysville, MD. It's right of US 50 before it splits with MD 90 near Ocean City, MD. Tiny place, small congregation. But great people. Most conversations are held in a mix of Ukrainian and English, and the Liturgy is about half and half. They're served by 3 priests from the north, and only get one Sunday a month, with 2 Saturdays. But I love this parish: http://www.holytrinityuoc.org/

Domilsean,
Nice site by the way, sometimes simpler is better....however you list it as a mission parish yet the site says it just celebrated its 50 year anniversery. Does that mean its been a mission for 50 years?
