2012 Mission Vespers
Priests from various parts of the New Jersey Deanery gathered together on Sunday, 18th of March 2012, for a “Mission Vespers Service” at our parish. Priests from throughout the Deanery participated (some traveling 3.5 hours one way). Priest Boris Slootsky and faithful parishioners hosted the event, followed by a Lenten meal.
The service homilist was Archpriest John Nehrebecki; the main celebrant was Archpriest Joseph Lickwar (Chancellor, Diocese of New York and New Jersey). The New Jersey Deanery celebrates “Mission Vespers” at different NJ Deanery parishes weekly during the Great Fast. In the words of the Dean, Archpriest Samuel Kedala, “Glory to God for all good things!”
