HOLY TRINITY MISSION HONORS ST. SAVA
Fairmont, WV - On Monday, January 31, 2005 following the Divine Liturgy at Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Mission in Fairmont, West Virginia, once again, time was taken to honor and pay tribute to St.Sava, First Serbian Archbishop and Enlightener.
Maria Djonovich and Niko Illich shared their detailed memories of St. Sava celebrations of long ago. Mike Danko, Sharren Paroda and Rose Illich joined with Maria Djonovich and Niko Illich in reading poetic tributes to St.Sava. Anna Yaremchuh is a faithful witness at each of these celebrations, reflecting her deep commitment to the growth of the Mission.
Though the Holy Trinity Mission is small in number of parishioners, time is taken every year to remember and pay tribute to St. Sava. Through the prayers of St. Sava, may the Mission continue to develop.
Located at 408 Morgantown Avenue, Fairmont, West Virginia, the Divine Liturgy is held at least twice monthly. The Mission has a chapel and small social area. It is the only Serbian Orthodox Church physically located in West Virginia.
A common meal is shared following each Divine Liturgy. Orthodox visitors travelling through Fairmont are pleasantly surprised when visiting the chapel.
A bulletin is mailed to interested individuals within and outside of West Virginia. Inquiries and visitors are always welcome.
