With faith in Christ and hope in the Resurrection, we share news of the repose today of His Beatitude, Metropolitan Theodosius. Metropolitan Theodosius was the head of the Orthodox Church in America from 1977 until his retirement in 2002. He led many celebrations at Holy Trinity Cathedral including the visit of His Holiness, Patriarch ALEKSY II in 1993. In June of 2002, on the eve of his retirement, His Beatitude led our Cathedral in the celebration of Holy Pentecost. Sup...ervisor Gavin Newsom and the Board of Supervisors designated that Pentecost Day Metropolitan Theodosius Day in San Francisco. You can see photographs from that festal weekend here: https://www.holy-trinity.org//2002.06.23.pentec/index.html We will celebrate a panikhida at 1:00 this afternoon at the Cathedral and another on Wednesday after Vespers. Memory Eternal!
