In Ottawa- singers rehearsing for the Consecration of Saint Elias Church

The Ottawa delegation of singers are preparing for the Consecration service on October 1. This video is part of a post with observations by Protodeacon Nazariy Yaruniv,  (he and Fr. Ivan Hobela) are visiting us from Lviv Ukraine to help with preparations for the Consecration Weekend.

If this video is any indication we have so much to look forward to.  Our local singers continue rehearsals every Sunday from now until October 1st.

Are you ready to do it all over again on October 1 2016? As we continue our preparations and the completion of the rebuilt temple here is a two hour "highlight reel" from October 8 1995 to remind of the joy consecration day will bring.  Look closely and you will see familiar faces. The link begins at the construction of the altar. Click through to view the whole service. Make sure you have a good speaker on your device.
