Dear Friends:

Glory to Jesus Christ!

On the Eve of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos, Tuesday, August 14th, 2012, we will welcome to St. George’s Ukrainian Catholic Church (3455 California Avenue, PGH 15212) His Eminence Metropolitan Archbishop William C. Skurla, the fifth Metropolitan Archbishop of the Archeparchy of Pittsburgh and head of the Byzantine Catholic (Ruthenian) Metropolitan Church sui iuris of Pittsburgh.

As a parish family we invite you to join us on this evening of August 14th at 7:00 p.m. for the celebration of Great Vespers in conjunction with the Procession with the Dormition Shroud. His Eminence Metropolitan Archbishop William C. Skurla will preside and be the homilist for this celebration in honor of the Mother of God and Ever-Virgin Mary. The responses be sung by the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchial Choir and our St. George’s Chant Group in order to offer the faithful the opportunity to sing and hear the beauty of both Liturgical chants: prostopinije and samoilka. At the end of this Divine Service we invite you for a time of Christian fellowship and summer refreshments in our Church hall. We look forward to welcoming you to our Holy Church to celebrate the Holy Dormition in faith. For directions please visit our parish website: www.saintgeorgepittsburgh.org [saintgeorgepittsburgh.org]

Bless, Father Valerian,

Wonderful! St George's deserves to be applauded for all of these wonderful and innovative programs and liturgical celebrations that it has been hosting.

Many years,

Neil
