62nd Diocesan Assembly Jan. 29-30, 2026

The Diocesan Assembly is around the corner and will be held in our WB Deanery January 29th & 30th. As you know, St. Michael's Orthodox Church in Old Forge has generously offered to host the event, but they need help from other parishes in the deanery - both in setting up and during the event - to get everything done.

Would you join me in recruiting folks from our parishes to help during the assembly (helping with the meals mostly) on Jan 29th & 30th, as well as on Saturday January 24 from 12-4:30pm for setup? 

You can simply forward this email to some of your key people, catechumens, inquirers and anyone who might be interested in helping. If we could find even a few people from each parish,

we would have more than enough.

Thanks so much for your help! People interested in helping can contact Fr. Michael Shepherd directly via this email at frmichael@stmichaelof.org. We will also send out a follow up email with details for those willing to help.

In Christ,

Fr. Innocent Neal,

Holy Trinity Orthodox Church, Wilkes Barre, PA
