Lakewood, NJ: Parish Feast Day of St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral

On Saturday, September 12, on the day of commemoration of the holy right-believing Grand Prince Alexander Nevsky, His Grace Jerome, Bishop of Manhattan, celebrated the Divine Liturgy in St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral on the occasion of the parish feast day. Bishop Jerome was co-served by clergy from neighboring parishes, in the presence of many of the faithful. During the Little Entrance, in accordance with a resolution of the ROCOR Synod, the rector of the cathedral, Protopresbyter Valery Lukianov, was awarded the right to wear a second cross. Bishop Jerome also blessed Matushka Anna Lukianov, John and Nina Butenko, and Andrei Jackamets, longtime parishioners, with gramatas thanking them for their efforts. After the Liturgy, a crucession around the church was held, followed by a bountiful lunchen in the church hall.
