Fr. Spyridon Bailey

Accomplished author of numerous books, a well known and loved speaker (also on YouTube), Fr. Spyridon was our parish priest from January 2022 until December 2023, when following some medical treatment he was unable to continue in this capacity. Fr. Spyridon speaks about his surgery in this video: https://youtu.be/OW3P-vZwTyI?si=5_3ps2DcexmjWOOE.  We are very thankful to Fr Spyridon for his time serving as our parish priest and pray he may be able to come and visit us in the future once again.
