Episcopal Church Hosts Parishioners who Lost Cathedral to Fire

From New York- (with video)

Parishioners of St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church filed into the neighboring Calvary Episcopal Church on Sunday to celebrate Mass.

The cathedral where they had joyfully participated in Easter services a week earlier is gone, gutted by a raging fire.

Calvary Episcopal opened its doors to the Serbian Orthodox community and invited them to share their house of worship for the weeks to come.


"I'm happy that we can hold our services here and I think it's something we have to continue every week," said parishioner Bojan Vanovan. "We have to have a Mass. People are still coming. We have to be together as a community."
