Glory to Jesus Christ!
Dear Parish Family,
This November will mark the 40th anniversary of the founding of St. John Chrysostom Byzantine Catholic Church, Houston. This is a major milestone in the life of our parish. It is a time to give our heartfelt thanks to Almighty God from whom all good things come! It is a time to reflect on the past and remember the history and people who have given so much of themselves. Without their love and sacrifice, we would not be here today as a parish family. The 40th Anniversary is also a time to look to the future with great hope and to commit ourselves to renewal. It is an opportunity for revival, to embrace the mission of the Church, which Jesus founded—to spread the Gospel for the salvation of souls! A highpoint of our anniversary celebration will be a visit from our Metropolitan Archbishop, William Skurla. He will celebrate the Divine Liturgy on Sunday, November 6th, at 10:00 am. He will also bless the parish’s new iconostasis. In the meantime, there is much to do to make this moment in our history a memorable one.
If you are interested in serving on the team, please speak with me as soon as possible or call the parish at 713-681-3580 or email me at [email protected]
Fr. Tom
