Orthodox Images | Holy Transfiguration

On Labor Day, September 3 (2006). the parish gathered at the almost completed foundation and in a solemn service buried a stone at the place where the altar will set. This stone was blessed by our bishop, His Eminence, Metropolitan Nicholas, last year at the dedication of the church property.

On September 9 the slab was poured and completed and on the following day the parish installed the treated sill plate which was later inspected and approved by the local building inspector. So now we are ready to raise the walls.

We took a major step forward on Saturday, September 16 as we began framing the walls of the church.

On Saturday, October 7, we gathered at the cross for the 1st hour of prayer and then began preparations to raise the trusses.

On Tuesday, October 10, the Darons and Millers completed more of the bracing and installed several rows of sheeting on the roof.

Finally, on Sunday August 5 (2007), we celebrated our first Sunday Divine Liturgy. The day was made very special by a visit from Very Reverend Protopresbyter George Havrila and his wife, Pani Anna.
