Mar Nicholovos Celebrates Feast of Ascension at St. Tikhon's Seminary Chapel
On Thursday, May 13^th, His Grace Zachariah Mar Nicholovos, Auxiliary Metropolitan of the Northeast American Diocese, celebrated the Feast of Ascension at St. Tikhon’s Orthodox Seminary Chapel in South Canaan, Pennsylvania.
Consecration of Bishop MICHAEL

On Saturday, May 8, 2010, the Dean of St. Tikhon’s Orthodox Theological Seminary, Archimandrite Michael [Dahulich] was consecrated as Bishop of New York and New Jersey at Saints Peter and Paul Church in Jersey City, New Jersey. Presiding at the consecration Divine Liturgy was His Beatitude, Metropolitan Jonah, and other members of the Holy Synod of Bishops.
It is bittersweet for us as we are joyous knowing that Bishop Michael has been called to the ministry of the Episcopacy, but saddened that he is leaving St. Tikhon’s. We cannot begin to express our gratitude for all the love and care he has shown our church and our students. He has led many of our retreats and conferences in America, and even travelled to India as a chief guest for the centennial celebrations of the MGOCSM last year. He is the reason many of us have chosen to come here to be formed as pastors for the Holy Church. We are truly thankful to Bishop Michael for his role in our lives as a spiritual father, role model, mentor, friend and teacher.
May God grant the newly consecrated, Bishop Michael, many years!
Ordination of Dn. Jacob Kurian & Dn. Zachariah Skariah

May God grant them many years!
