On Saturday, 31 January 2015, Deacon Gregory White was ordained to the Holy Priesthood by His Grace, Bishop Michael, at Saint Tikhon’s Monastery Church in South Canaan PA. Father Gregory, whose home parish is in Elmira Heights NY, is a recent graduate of our Diocesan Diaconal Formation Program and is now concluding his full-time/resident studies at Saint Tikhon’s Orthodox Theological Seminary.

May God bless and grant “many years” to Father Gregory and his wife, Matushka Katherine, as they begin this next phase of their public ministry to the glory of God and the good-estate of His Holy Church abiding in the Diocese of New York and New Jersey.

“AXIOS! He is worthy!”
