May His Memory Be Eternal!
+The Very Rev. Fr. Matthew B. MacKay+
November 18, 1955 - July 26, 2010
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our pastor. Memorial services were held on July 29 and 30. (Photos)
Please pray for Kh. Lynn, Patrick, and Sean, for their loss, and for the parish of St. Joseph Orthodox Church.
Also, please see the attached tribute by His Grace, Bishop THOMAS, the memorial card from the funeral, and listen to an interview of Fr. Matthew, where he talked about his journey to the Orthodox Church.
May the Lord bless us all in this difficult time.
A memorial fund has been established in Fr. Matthew's name to pay for the completion of the Pantocrator icon in the dome of the sanctuary. Special donation envelopes are available in the Narthex and the Parish Hall for your contributions. You may also donate to the memorial icon fund online by clicking on the button below.
