Join us as the Rector of the Seminary, Bishop Auxentios of Etna and Portland, shares the vision of the expansion and details of the project plan. With the facility more than doubling in size, the expansion will increase the Seminary's capacity from 15 to 50 students.

A question and answer session will immediately follow the presentation.

We hope to see you all there!

Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church is a beautiful mission parish near downtown Tucson, a city in southern Arizona. It was started in 1997 by Father John Bockman, who was a missionary Priest formerly serving missions in Tennessee and Massachusetts since 1990. Father John served the faithful in Tucson and the surrounding area in his home Chapel until his repose in November of 2000. His wife, Presbytera Valerie, continued to make her home Chapel available for the mission, with clergy from Saint Nectarios Orthodox Church in Seattle and His Eminence, Metropolitan Moses of Toronto (then of Portland), visiting to provide the Divine Services.
