Divine Liturgy / Festal Meal with Met. Herman - 07/08/07

On the weekend of July 7-8, 2007, His Beatitude Metropolitan Herman, the Archbishop of Washington and New York, visited Christ the Savior for the celebration of the liturgical services, a meeting with the Parish Council, and a festal meal with all the faithful parishioners and visitors.

The weekend began with Great Vespers on Saturday evening, after which His Beatitude shared light refreshments and discussion with the parishioners.  Then he met with Fr. John and the Parish Council, offering his guidance and blessings for their continued good work.

On Sunday, following the Divine Liturgy, Metropolitan Herman formally installed Fr. John Parsells as the Rector of the parish.  Then in celebration of this historic weekend, the faithful gathered at a local resort hotel for a festal brunch.

Many thanks to all who made this weekend such a success!  Glory to God!

On Sunday, February 8, 2026, Christ the Savior held its Annual Parish Meeting. The agenda, reports, budget, and draft minutes for the meeting are available below. A central focus of the meeting was continued progress toward building the new temple, including updates on permitting, fundraising milestones, and the launch of the Ambassadors’ Program to engage every household in the effort. Parishioners were encouraged to participate prayerfully and voluntarily as the community moves closer to the active construction phase. We thank all who attended, presented reports, and assisted with the minutes!
