MISSION PARISHES MOVED TO
CONGREGATIONAL STATUS IN DIOCESE
"And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice." (John 10:4)
With these words from the Gospel of St. John we welcome His Grace Our Bishop Mitrophan. His Grace along with Father Dragan Zaric and visiting Father Deacon Gavrilo Milkovich celebrated the Holy Liturgy together with many faithful in attendance.
After a Lenten meal shared by all, His Grace informed the faithful that a decision has been made to move St. Basil of Ostrog along with the other mission parishes in the Diocese to the status of a full congregational Church parish. This means we will elect a full sitting parish council for our community. This also means that each Church will now be assigned a full-time priest with which to serve the community.
We all look forward in faith, hope and love that Our Lord will continue to bless our Church and our faithful, as we complete this endeavor begun many years ago with only a handful of faithful.
Deacon Gavrilo Milkovich
