At the end of the service Vladyka Elisey addressed the congregation with a few words of archpastoral guidance. His Grace acknowledged with thanks Fr Maxim’s work and wished the congregation spiritual growth and wellbeing.After the service all those present shared a meal prepared by the parishioners.
