St. Basil Seminary invites young men ages 14 and older to a Open House that will be held on April 21st, 2018. The theme of this seminary is “COME and SEE”. For more information see the flyers at the entrance or call the rectory 203-865-0388.
ADULT RELIGIOUS EDUCATION: We are spearheading an effort to provide Adult Religious Education – Refresher courses to the members of the Parish. The basic plan outline is to provide an English Class after the English Divine Liturgy on Sunday and a Ukrainian class after the Ukrainian Divine Liturgy. The class will be offered once or twice a month. A curriculum is being formulated as we speak. We now turn to you the parishioners to tell us what topics you would like to see covered. We also invite you if you feel you have a topic that you would like to lecture on to bring it to my attention. I look forward to all of your suggestions, Father Iura
