HERMITAGE PARISH RECEIVES FRESCOES
Hermitage, PA - Some years back the St. George Serbian Orthodox Church in Hermitage started a fresco fund. Over the years this fund has steadily grown so that the parish priest, Fr. Milovan Katanic together with members of the church board explored the idea of beginning the fresco project in the church.
Board member Bosko Vucenovic volunteered to head a committee together with Fr. Milovan to seek out iconographers. Among those they contacted was Filip Subotic, a graduate of St. Sava School of Theology in Libertyville. After talking with Filip it was decided to entrust him with this great and God pleasing deed of frescoing the church.
Filip began work on Tuesday, September 28th, the day after the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. He has already completed the Pantocrator and is presently working on the pentatives.
