Dear Brothers and Sisters!

A Russian Orthodox Mission was started in Madison in 1950 and existed for 18 years. It was located in the Greek Orthodox church. A Russian priest came from Milwaukee every other Saturday and conducted services.

With the blessing of the Most Reverend Peter, bishop of Cleveland, a Russian mission is opening in this same Greek church and the rector of Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church Abroad in Milwaukee, Archpriest Vasyl Kuzmych, will nurture it.

On Saturday the 12th of January, after a 45-year break, the first Liturgy was served in the Church Slavonic language.

Many thanks to the rector of the Greek parish, Fr. Michael, and to the parish council, for loaning their church to our Russian mission.
