Priest John E. Parker III, newly appointed chair of the Department of Evangelization for the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), will be speaking Tuesday, January 31st, at 7:30 p.m. in the Bashir Auditorium on the seminary campus. A dynamic presenter, he will address the topic, "The Realities of Life in Orthodox Mission Churches."

The talk is free and open to the public, and Father John especially welcomes all SVOTS seminarians who have an interest in inter-jurisdictional cooperation among Orthodox Christians in planting new missions across the U.S.

Note: the Bashir Auditorium is directly across from the SVS Bookstore, on the second floor of the Education Building.
