An Historic Day!
On June 7th, 2026, Bishop Kym Lucas presided at a Byzantine Rite service with St. Mary Magdalene Equal to the Apostles at St. John Chrysostom Episcopal Church. As far as historical records show, Bishop Kym is believed to be the first woman ever to serve in this role within the Byzantine Rite. This is a remarkable milestone not only for our congregations, but for the wider Church. Our partners from St. John Chrysostom and St. Joseph also participated and collaborated to make it a great day!
Also, congratulations to Alex Bronner for being received into the Episcopal church and our community.
