The new academic year has begun at Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary. After a few days of orientation for new students and the traditional Labor Day pilgrimage to the monastery, the annual convocation was held on Tuesday, September 3 at 2:00pm in the PVL hall. The faculty members introduced themselves to the new students, explaining which classes they taught and recounting their backgrounds and current academic work. Then it was the new students’ turn to introduce themselves. One by one they briefly explained where they were from and what had motivated them to come to seminary.
