ST. LUKE CHURCH CELEBRATES SLAVA
Washington, DC - The parish of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist Luke celebrated its parish Slava on Sunday, October 31, 2004. It is an exciting time for this growing parish. The parish is anticipating a renovation of its current building to house a chapel, fellowship hall and kitchen, this being only the beginning of the building plans for the parish.
Our Slava was well attended and the Slavski Kolach and Zito was blessed by Fr. Aleksa Micich, our parish priest in our temporary chapel. It was also a day in which several of our individual families also celebrated their family slavas. In one of the pictures below, we see an added blessing. The Serbian Unity Congress, Washington DC Chapter, last weekend generously donated to our parish, a replica of an icon of an angel from Sokolica Monastery in Kosovo, which has been reproduced by the hand of Igumanija Makarija. Kumovi for this years Slava was the Hadijski family and our Reader Miodrag Lazarevic accepted the honor to be Kum next year.
