Participants in CrossRoad 2009 visit St. George Cathedral, Boston, MA

BOSTON, MA [Albanian Archdiocese/OCA Communications] — On Friday, June 26, 2009, twenty-eight high school seniors and eight staff members from Orthodox Christian parishes in 17 states taking part in the CrossRoad 2009 program visited the OCA Albanian Archdiocese’s St. George Cathedral here.

The students were hosted by the Very Rev. Arthur Liolin, cathedral dean, and other members of the parish community. They shared in prayer, enjoyed a tour and dinner, and engaged in discussion.

CrossRoad is a 10-day Orthodox Christian summer program sponsored by Hellenic College/Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, Brookline, MA, in which participants focus on Christ and His calling for their lives. Participants explore their vocations through mini-classes taught by HC/HC faculty, community outreach projects, visits to Orthodox parishes, and other excursions in the Boston area.

The clergy and faithful of Saint George Cathedral will host a second CrossRoad group on Monday, July 13.
