New Banner at the Cathedral

Sadly, the Cathedral also fell victim to a hate-crime this summer when a young man came and ripped one of the “Воля | Liberty” banners attached to the staircase railings at the front of the church. The vandalism was reported to the Police and media immediately. The good news? The banner has been replaced and we continue calmly forward, praying for peace in Ukraine and remembering:

Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

(Sermon on the mount as sung in the Divine Liturgy in the 3rd Antiphon)
