As the cold weather set upon New Jersey, the heat was on at St. Demetrius as the celebration of their feast day took place on the 11th of November with Metropolitan Antony leading the services. The Divine Liturgy began at 9:00am with the greeting of the Hierarch by Fr. Taras and Deacon Richard, Subdeacon Peter, Seminarians Yaroslaw, Oleh, Myroslaw, Altar servers James Dougles, Qory, and Ryan, the children of the parish who presented flowers, and the president of the parish council Stanley Nartowicz who greeted our Hierarch with the traditional bread and salt.
