Holy Ghost has been serving Our Lord since its founding by Galician Immigrants in 1923.Holy Ghost is a small parish by today's standards, the people of our parish pride themselves on their hospitality and love towards our visitors. Please plan to stay after Divine Liturgy for our Coffee Hour Social Time. Please feel free to contact Father Robert Popichak if you have any questions or are interested in learning about the Orthodox Church. Father Bob has served at Holy Ghost since January of 1998. All Services are in English. Holy Day Services are announced in the weekly bulletin (see below). |
