On Saturday, 4th February 2023, His Grace Bishop George of Sydney Australia & New Zealand arrived at the Holy Trinity parish located at the Huon district in Tasmania which is approximately one hour drive from Hobart.

В этом, 2023 году, в канун Рождества и рано утром 7 января в Сиднее прошли обновляющие природу дожди.

Когда на литургию в день Рождества Христова собирались сотни людей нашей общины, дождь закончился, и небо просветлело, как будто оберегая прихожан. (more…)
