<\/div>\n
Despite being a weekday, the cathedral was filled with faithful who had come from all corners of Australia, as well as from New Zealand. The cathedral choir sang majestically and reverently.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
During the Sixth Hour, Archbishop George tonsured George Triysi a reader and following the Great Entrance, deacon Boris Metlenko was ordained to the holy priesthood. Fr Boris is assigned to St Nicholas Cathedral as the third priest.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The festive service concluded with a solemn procession around the Cathedral, in which all the faithful took part.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
At the conclusion of the service, Archbishop George delivered a heartfelt sermon, after which the cathedral rector, Archpriest Gabriel Makarov, invited everyone to a festive meal. As always, the sisterhood warmly welcomed the guests with a variety of delicious dishes and homemade sweets.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
During the meal, Archbishop George and Father Gabriel presented certificates of appreciation to members of the sisterhood and active parish workers \u2014 those who diligently and lovingly labour for the good of the parish. Following the presentation, Father Gabriel announced joyful news: two days prior, with the blessing of Archbishop George, a contract had been signed to begin the reconstruction of the cathedral grounds.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The celebration of the feast day joyfully continued with warm fellowship and heartfelt conversations.<\/div>\n
