St Herman's Orthodox Church in Edmonton, Alberta, was blessed to have His Eminence, Archbishop Irénée, join us for our Patronal Feast Day on 13 December. It was a joy to have so many people in attendance, along with the altar being filled with 25 clergy and altar servers (along with a multitude of angels).

A few photos from the Vespers for our parish feast of St. Nicholas. Truly a beautiful service, and a reflection of the beauty of our patron saint's love and intercession for us.

After our festal Vespers, a banquet was served in celebration for St. Nicholas... Who sort of made an appearance. Truly a wonderful evening.

Archbishop Irénée joined with Fr Paul Kara and the community of the Sign of the Theotokos Church in Montréal to celebrate the parish's patronal feast. Great Vespers with Litia/Artoklasia was held on the eve, and a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy on the feast, Sunday 26 November.

Mgr Irénée a rencontré les doyens régionaux et d'autres membres élus du conseil archidiocésain de Rawdon, Québec, le mardi 24 octobre et le mercredi 25 octobre.

La réunion du conseil a commencé par un molieben dans la chapelle de la Mère de Dieu de Diveevo, récemment acquise et rénovée, où se réunit pour le culte la paroisse Saint-Séraphin de Rawdon. Une Divine Liturgie a été célébrée mercredi matin.
