Faithful from the four parishes in Massachusetts and beyond gathered together the evening of Friday April 19, 2024 at Assumption of the Virgin Mary Church in Worcester. His Grace Bishop Nikodhim, along with Father Mark Doku and Father John Daly, led the faithful in this prayer of protection and thanksgiving which dates back to the 7th century. At the conclusion of the service, His Grace offered a few words before everyone went to the hall for a wonderful meal hosted by the parish.
