Bishop Kurt has asked for prayers for our Nation as we approach the midterm elections. He has instructed the priests of the Eparchy to hold daily services honoring Mary, the Holy and Blessed Theotokos, asking for her intercession for our great nation and her people. These services began on October 1, the Feast of the Protection of the Mother of God (Pokrov) and will continue throughout the month of October. Please see our Facebook page for a schedule of our services at Holy Ghost Byzantine Catholic Church and join us in prayer when you are able. May God Bless America.
Important Notes: Come and worship with us! The Byzantine Catholic Church is Catholic! It is part of the Eastern lung of the whole Catholic Church under the Pope of Rome. The Choir Loft at Holy Ghost Church is for Choir members only. Thank you for your continued cooperation with this.
As was prior to the pandemic, anyone is relieved of the obligation to participate at Sunday Liturgy for a serious reason such as sickness, immobility, fear, caring for someone else.

Pray for peace the end to wars in Ukraine and in the Middle East. Pray for the victims of war and that the crimes against humanity may cease. Please pray for our country, that the divisions that are dividing us may be healed so that we can once again work together and be "united, one nation, under God, indivisible and with liberty and justice for all".
Eastern Catholic Formation/ECF: Religious Education Classes
Registration for the school year is now OPEN and classes have begun. Please take this obligation seriously and put your child's religious education BEFORE all other activities. ECF not only teaches our children how to become closer to God through prayer, service, and knowledge, but it also teaches them what it is to be an Eastern Rite Catholic, and the beautiful traditions of the Byzantine Catholic Church. We welcome the opportunity to teach your child about his or her faith, and the ways of our beautiful Rite. Please know that we plan to hold in-person ECF classes in the fall. Please contact our DRE, Giovann Barkowski or our Parochial Vicar, Fr. Bert Olechnowicz, with any questions at [email protected].
