On Saturday 27 July the parish rector baptised an adult convert to Orthodoxy, Harry McInnes.  In baptism Harry took the name John in honour of Saint John Chrysostom, Archbishop of Constantinople.  He had as his sponsor our parishioner, James Savage.  Afterwards, family members, friends and parishioners gathered in the church hall for a festive BBQ lunch.  On the following day, John received Holy Communion for the first time.  We warmly congratulate the newly-baptised servant of God John, wishing him good health, every blessing from above, and many years!  John was the sixth adult convert to be baptised in our parish since May 2023.
