25th Anniversary of Christ the Savior
We are overjoyed to announce that His Beatitude, Metropolitan Tikhon will visit Christ the Savior Orthodox Church on August 23-24, 2025, as we celebrate our 25th Anniversary! This momentous occasion will be a time of worship, fellowship, and thanksgiving to Almighty God for His abundant blessings over the past quarter-century.
We look forward to welcoming our beloved hierarch, along with clergy and faithful from near and far—especially those who helped found and nurture our parish. Please mark your calendars and plan to join us for this joyous celebration!
As we prepare for this milestone, we also give thanks for the continued growth of our parish. By God’s grace, Christ the Savior is flourishing, and we are advancing in our plans to build a new church temple in Berlin, Maryland. This effort is gaining momentum thanks to a $100,000 matching donation to the building fund throughout 2025—our 25th Anniversary year.
Stay tuned for more details, and please keep us in your prayers. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
As we prepare to celebrate our church’s 25th anniversary, we invite you to share your memories, stories, and reflections. Your experiences are a cherished part of our church’s journey, and we would love to include them in our celebration!

As we prepare to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of our parish, we warmly invite everyone—parishioners and visitors alike—to join us for a special 25th Anniversary Luncheon at Signatures Bayside Restaurant following the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy with Metropolitan Tikhon on Sunday, August 24, 2025. This is a joyous occasion for our entire parish family, and all are not only welcome, but sincerely encouraged to attend—regardless of ability to contribute.
We invite you to make a donation to help cover the cost of the meal and other celebration expenses (suggested: $50/adult and $20/child). If you are able, please also consider giving a little extra to support those who may not be able to contribute at this time. Your generosity will help ensure that everyone can participate fully in this celebration without hesitation or concern.
We estimate the total costs of the 25th Anniversary Celebration to be around $7,500. Donations of any amount are appreciated and can be made below, at the candle stand, or by speaking with Georgianne Mathews, our 25th Anniversary Committee Chair.
Let us come together in thanksgiving, joy, and fellowship—just as we have for the past 25 years!
(Donations in excess of the cost of the event will be designated for the building of our new temple.)
